This is absolutely gorgeous Pucci dress with a superb color palette in shade of green mixed with taupes to create one of his signature prints. It is made of a lightweight silk jersey, a preferred fabric choice for Pucci because of how it draped on the body, held color and was so easy to pack and travel with for his jet set clientele. It is cut with long, skinny sleeves and a bodice that skims over the bust and then drops into a low slung waist. This then tops a sleek and simple skirt that flows to the floor. This is a classic Emilio Pucci silhouette that is instantly recognizable and very sexy despite it covering you from head to toe. I love the band at the waist that gives it a bit of visual definition but still allows for that easy to wear cut. That same contrasting band runs the back of the dress in a dramatic play on the print and also is picked up at the collar, cuffs and hem. The colors all pop against each other beautifully. The entire dress weighs ounces and is wonderfully bright and happy in feel as all the very best Pucci's are! Presents as excellent, museum quality condition.
Unlined and closes with a back hidden, painted metal zipper and hidden fabric covered snaps at the neck. The fabric is a silk jersey and does have some stretch. There is an area of discoloration on one side just below the hip - please supersize the photo of this small flaw to see. It has been priced accordingly and because of the print and placement it does not detract once on.
