Description: A striking example of Pierre Cardin’s late-1980s to early-1990s approach to glamour, this sculptural wool dress is rendered in a richly detailed floral jacquard woven with metallic gold accents that catch the light with every movement. The dramatic plunging neckline is enhanced by a softly draped faux neckscarf that cascades through an oversized circular buckle at the waist, while a matching self-belt wraps around the back to define the silhouette. Structured cap sleeves and elegant draping through the bodice create a flattering, body-skimming shape, while the warm palette of gold, bronze, burgundy, and rose lends richness and depth. Balancing romantic ornamentation with Cardin’s signature architectural sensibility, the design is both opulent and unmistakably sophisticated.

Condition:  Gently worn with no obvious damage.
