Dating to the late 70's, this stunning evening piece was designed by Anthony Ferrara for Whiting & Davis and is an exceptional example of Ferrara's iconic chainmail halter which was his signature design. Constructed from the house's signature liquid mesh in alternating polished silver tones, the top falls into a dramatic low cowl neckline before tapering into an angular point at the waist. The open back is secured with slender metallic silver leather ties at the neck and waist, allowing the piece to drape effortlessly against the body while remaining fully adjustable.
The striped mesh construction catches the light from every angle, creating the fluid, molten effect that made Whiting & Davis eveningwear synonymous with the glamour of the Studio 54 era.
Made in USA.
