Dating to the S/S 2003 collection, this stunning Valentino gown was look 62 on the runway worn by supermodel Karolina Kurkova and was also worn by Beyoncé at the 2003 VHI Divas Duets and by Celine Dion at a 2003 gala event. Divinely constructed from feather light, semi-sheer silk chiffon, it features an empire waisted underlayer in a geometrical print with a complimentary floral printed overlayer that drapes open across the front creating a gorgeous contrast when the wearer moves. The bodice is ruched with a large metal ring at the centre of the bust and is suspended from simple spaghetti straps. Romantic and feminine, this is a rare & special vintage Valentino piece perfect for a special occasion. Made in Italy.
