Size: small

Condition: excellent

An incredibly chic and highly coveted John Galliano ballerina slipper pink silk chiffon bias-cut gown dating back to his 2008 fall/winter collection. These early examples of his work are very collectable and are becoming incredibly hard to find. As you can see his own label mirrored his work at Christian Dior during the same time. John Galliano is widely considered one of the most innovative and influential fashion designers of the early twenty-first century. He mingled his references in often surprising juxtapositions to create extravagant yet intricately engineered and meticulously tailored clothes. This dress is everything you look for in John Galliano fashion. The fabric itself is sensational; a luxurious semi-sheer 'light as a feather' layered silk chiffon in a prettiest pale pink color. The draped ruffles give the gown such sensational depth and texture. The drop-waist with side ties is so alluring. I especially love the side covered buttons which is definitely a nod to 1930's fashion. The sculpted bias-cut skirting skims the hips while creating a stunning tiered hourglass shape. Just look at the way it cascades to the floor! This is that unforgettable red carpet or wedding guest look every fashionista looks for. A rare wearable piece of John Galliano fashion history.
