Inspired by the inimitable Elsa Schiaparelli, this decadent dress pairs 1940’s styling with modern ease and wearability. Swaths of luxurious burgundy silk drape and twirl on the body, designed to accentuate an hourglass shape without cutting or binding. As perfect paired with lipstick and heels for a cocktail party as worn at home as a singularly indulgent house dress, this piece can truly take you anywhere. 

• Vintage inspired dress is crafted from dark red stretch silk
• 3/4 sleeves with a crossover deep v neckline and a shirred elasticized waist
• Silk shoulder pads are tacked in, a great way to add to the 40’s shape but easily removable 
• A full skirt and hip flounces add drape and movement
• Designed in France by Vannina Vesperini

Indulge yourself in the decadence of pure silk. Vannina Vesperini’s French atelier pulled out all the stops in the construction of this dress, from its elasticized shirred waist to its perfectly placed hip flounces. Originally created in a pale pink silk, it was custom-crafted for Jane’s Vanity in this sumptuous bordeaux red.
