This may be one of the most fantastic gowns that Givenchy ever produced! Hand screened silk chiffon that has a romantic floral print is the basis of this masterpiece. The gown itself is simple and perfect - a softly gathered high bodice with teeny silk straps tops a flowing silk chiffon skirt that fall to the floor in a pretty column. It weighs mere ounces and you will feel like it floats around you as you walk. The overall effect is sift and ethereal like some beautiful goddess worthy gown. Astonishingly beautiful and a true example of how extraordinary great design can be when cut and fabric are married to perfection. A similar gown was used in the 1977 ad campaign and appeared in L'Officiel - see last photo. Excellent, museum quality condition
