AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vionnet – Runway Model - One-shoulder draped silk long dress – Size 42
Iconic full-length dress signed Vionnet, a perfect example of the sophisticated, sculptural aesthetic that has made the house famous in fashion history. Created in the spirit of Vionnet tradition, the model interprets drapery as an architectural element able to accompany the female body with utmost naturalness, enhancing its sensuality without ever constraining it.
The one-shoulder design creates a graphic, essential, and modern line, while the long draped panel slides across the front of the dress, generating movement, depth, and fluidity. The silhouette is elongated, fluid, and sophisticated: the fabric follows the body with elegance, opening gently at the front into a discreet yet extremely feminine slit.
, which adds light and recalls the house’s couture approach. The final effect is that of minimalist yet highly impactful elegance, typical of contemporary Vionnet creations.
The model also appears in runway/editorial version, a further detail that underlines its collectible value and stylistic importance.
The garment is perfect for galas and black-tie events, red carpet, formal occasions, and evening ceremonies. A contemporary piece with strong collectible appeal.
The gold-tone jeweled details applied to the asymmetrical neckline for both the show and the shoot are NOT part of the dress (therefore not part of the auction lot); they were added on the two occasions to enrich the dress, and the idea can be easily copied.
