Rendered in the most perfect shade of Bonbon pink, this original vintage 1960's evening gown by Mike Benet, is just the piece for that special occasion. .
The strapless neckline of the dress, is set off by a straight cut décolletage, which is accented by a fitted and boned bodice, embellished with layers of pink textural sequins, and a draped and pleated chiffon sash. The fitted waistline, is accented by gathered pleats of chiffon, which drape along the length of the skirt-line, above a matching pink nylon lining.
The dress is boned along the bodice
