Description from the seller

Vionnet – Runway Model - One-shoulder long draped silk gown – Size 42

Iconic long gown signed Vionnet, a perfect example of the sophisticated, sculptural aesthetic that made the maison famous in fashion history. Created in the spirit of Vionnet tradition, the model interprets drapery as an architectural element capable of accompanying the female body with extreme naturalness, enhancing its sensuality without ever constraining it.
The one-shoulder design creates a graphic, essential and modern line, while the long draped panel flows down the front of the dress, generating movement, depth and fluidity. The silhouette is elongated, fluid and sophisticated: the fabric follows the body gracefully, opening gently at the front into a discreet yet extremely feminine slit.
, which brings light and recalls the maison’s couture approach. The final effect is minimalist elegance with a very strong visual impact, typical of contemporary Vionnet creations.
The model also appears in runway/editorial version, a further detail that underscores its collectible value and stylistic importance.
The garment is perfect for galas and black-tie events, red carpets, formal occasions and evening ceremonies. A contemporary piece with strong collectible appeal.

The gold-tone jewel details applied to the asymmetrical neckline for both the runway and the shoot are NOT part of the dress (i.e., the lot in the auction); they were added on the two occasions to enrich the gown, and the idea can easily be copied.
