This truly eye-catching 1960's gown, rendered in the brightest shade of Sicilian yellow and accented by silver rhinestone details, is just the perfect piece to add a pop of colour to your seasonal wardrobe.
The V shaped neckline, is framed by a simple shoulder line and a sleeveless cut. The elegant Empire line cut, is set off by gathered smocking stitches along the front of the décolletage, which create pleats that radiate upwards along the bust and drape downwards along the length of the front of the gown. Finished with two piped bands below the bust-line, which are decorated with silver rhinestone inlay tabs, every detail of this piece showcases the Grecian inspired silhouette of the era. This gown is lined in a matching yellow rayon.
