Emilio Pucci - Dress

Emilio Pucci Runway Dress - Closing Show Piece - Fall/Winter 2013 IN SHORT: • Documented closing look from the Fall/Winter 2013 runway show (Look 44) • Peter Dundas era (highly sought after by collectors) • Complex, non-commercial construction, not intended for mass production • Strong visual presence and lasting relevance This Emilio Pucci dress is the final look of the Fall/Winter 2013 fashion show - a position traditionally reserved for the most complex and conceptually important piece of the collection. Designed under the artistic direction of Peter Dundas, it doesn’t rely on prints - the Pucci spirit here is expressed through craftsmanship, texture and construction. The mood is dark and controlled, with a subtle gothic-romantic undertone - strong, not theatrical. Note its complexity: hand-contoured leather insets, lace layered over nude silk, panels of sheer tulle, and glass bead embroidery applied one by one to form an Art Nouveau–inspired geometry. Such work was never intended for mass production; it belongs firmly to runway-level pieces. Originally retailed at approximately €7500, reflecting its status as a closing look with construction approaching haute couture in both technique and labour. CONDITION: Excellent pre-owned condition. Minor imperfection on the outer decorative mesh layer at the lower back (approx. 4 × 6 mm), professionally stabilized to prevent further movement, visible only up close - does not affect appearance or structure. The underlying finer mesh layer remains intact and provides good support. No other visible flaws. Silk lining intact. No odor. SIZE: S / IT 40 / FR 36 Shoulders 37 cm · Chest 44 · Waist 36 · Hips 45 · Sleeve 65 · Length 79 (+ approx. 5 cm internal hem allowance) Made in Italy SELLER’S NOTE Selected for its exceptional construction, documented runway status and strong visual impact. A rare runway piece with undeniable archival value.
