• The twin of this dress was presented for Look 12 for the Spring 2012 Pucci collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Peter Dundas. 
  
• I love that the photos and videos give you an idea of how gorgeous this is on the body.
• Vogue noted that for the spring collection Dundas "worked a sexpot theme – all mid drift baring peasant tops, visible dentelle knit panties, and suggestively place black laces insets on silk slipdresses. Over the top? At times. But his girls look so smoking hot you'd need a heart of stone to avoid being seduced by the like of Natasha Poly advancing brazenly towards you in a flood tide of Pucci print."
• It is a two piece set that you can wear to give the appearance of either a dress or make it more obvious that it is two different pieces. 
• Both pieces are made out of one of the Pucci label's classic, ultra-light silks and even though there is a lot of fabric in the skirt it still stays very light in weight because of the fabric choice.
• The silk has been completely covered in an outstanding pink Pucci print and I love that Dundas chose these exceptional pinks prints. There is a shot of black in the skirt, and that just shows off the pinks and pastels even more. I have shot of all of the various prints used in a set so that you can see how beautiful they are.
• I love that Peter Dundas chose to take such a strong nod to the house legacy.
  
• For the top, you tie it at the back of the neck and it creates that beautiful soft draping at the front neck line. Then you tie it again behind the back at the waist and because of the softness of the silk and ease of tying it, you can decide if you want to wear it with the point down and over the skirt so that you are fully covered, or if you prefer to wear it folded or twisted so that you leave a bare expanse of skin showing between the top and skirt.
• I took a photo of the top laying out flat to show you it's simple yet brilliant shape. It is one large double-sided silk jersey shape shaped so that it ties into place around you.
• I also shot it laying out flat on both the back and front sides because the top has two different prints on each side. If you remove the label you could wear it either way around and change the look of the top completely.
• The skirt is equally as simple and brilliant. It has no band at the waist. Instead, it just falls into a front point that repeats on the back. On the front it's more a red print and on the back it's a pale pink.
• From there it curves out over the top of the hips and then the fabric is very full below that. All of the fabric in the skirt is completely cut on the bias so you get an incredible amount of movement when you move.
• It widens out from there and falls in for attached panels all the way around you. Each panel widening out significantly by the hem.
• There are four distinct panels with four distinct prints. I have shot each of the four for you to see.
• There is a tremendous amount of fabric in the skirt and between that and the lightness of the silk it has phenomenal movement around you as you move.
  
• The era that Peter Dundas was the creative director at Pucci is 100% my favourite of the modern predecessors to Emilio and this is an outstanding example of that.
• The top is made from a double layer of printed silk. The pointed yolk at the top of the ski skirt is also a double layer of silk, and then the panels are a single layer. The top ties into place as seen and described above, and the skirt closes with a hidden set side zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for Look 36 of the Spring 2015 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Peter Dundas. 
  
• In the coverage for this collection, Vogue said that Peter Dundas "understands the value of power casting; he had Naomi Campbell in his lineup for the first time today. Ogling the models is understandable enough – they are inches from your eyeballs at the Palazzo Serbelloni venue. But if you do, you might miss the artisanal details at Dundas has made as much a contemporary Pucci signature as the Florentine house's famous archival prints." 
• They also specifically tie dye dresses saying that "if they look like the real thing, that's because the prince were based on get your hand, dirty trial and error." I love that we know that these were all specifically developed and done by hand!
• I love that the runway photos and video show you just how gorgeous this is on the body and how it moves. 
• The tie dye is done on an ultra light-in-weight silk chiffon with the upper bodice covered in a mix of domed silver studs embroidery sequins and bead work all done by hand.
• The upper bodice has a yoked front that extends down into a curve point and scoops at the neck line. The straps curved around at the front on either side of the neck and then trail down the outside of your back to meet the top of a low scoop there that leaves your back bare and exposed.
• It is covered in silver dome beads, and then has a pretty pattern that mixes flowers with pink mirrored parts, beadwork embroidery and more various sized silver beads.
• Where that attaches into the dress there are little bits of nude netting with a silk ladder pattern and I love this little unexpected bit of skin that it allows to show through the net.
• There are many many yards of that fantastic feather light silk chiffon used for the dress. It is set on gathered angled panels that skims over the bust and around to the back. 
• Two layers of tie dye chiffon are set in under that and these opens out over the waist and hips and just continue to become wider so that it is extremely full by the hem.
• I love how the front is cut shorter, and then the back swooped out to trail behind. This cut helps the silk to pick up any air at all and out around you. You can see that in the video on the runway.
• The print on the silk combines a beautiful pattern that ranges from deep to soft corals and a purple to a periwinkle.
• I love that the tie-dye on both layers have been matched so you get a print on print depth that would not exist otherwise if they had not done it this way. It is very beautiful.
  
• The skirt has a third layer of a nude silk chiffon underneath the top two tie dyed layers that keeps it very light still but gives it a touch of opaqueness so that it can be worn without being too transparent.
• There is a tremendous amount of fabric in the skirt. The lightness of the silk layers have phenomenal movement around you as you move.
• The dress is one of my favourites of all the modern pieces of Pucci that I have seen and the era that Peter Dundas was the creative director at Pucci is 100% my favourite of the modern predecessors to Emilio.
• The top part of bodice is backed in a matching coral silk and the skirt has three layers as described above. It closes at the back. with a hidden set zipper. The fabric is signed throughout. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. 
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.

• The twin of this dress was shown for Look 18 for the Resort 2023 Versace presentation.
• It was made under the creative direction of Donatella Versace.
• The dress is extra interesting because it is an obvious tribute/homage to the famous Spring 2004 dress that was Look 56 of that collection and worn by Isabeli Fontana. It was sold in stores and described as a re-addition of that dress. It was also very expensive. It retailed for $11,000 USD.
• For some odd reason it was shown layered over a black Versace T-shirt. We have included the photos of the 2004 runway so you can get a better idea of how this one will look on the body. 
• The dress is made of a very light in weight silk chiffon that combines a beautiful floral print with the Versace logo.
• Two triangles of fabric overlap each other at the front and then at their tops they twist to become straps that curve down and attach into the back.
• The front has a deep plunge. If you needed it to stay at a specific spot you could always add a little hidden hook or snap. Or wear it as low as you dare.
• The back is scooped low to leave a bare expanse of skin showing.
• Angled seams bring the dress in at the waist but there is no obvious seam to break the eye. It is all completely cut on the bias so simply skims over you all past the waist to the top of the hip.
• The skirt is phenomenal. It is set into curved seams that go all the way around you and then onto those curved seams are individual panels of silk chiffon in a double layer. There is one main panel at the front, one at the back and then a third that curves around the front and overlaps the other front panel slightly.
• In between all of the panels it is slit extremely high right up to those angled seams that run around you. There is so much fabric that you don't realize that there are openings all around you until you walk or move and then they are exposed. It is phenomenal.
• I absolutely love the mix of prints. The top one is a floral print that has the Versace logo in several shades of pale pinks throughout. The flowers range from corals to a pop of lime in colour. Under that, the inner layers of the skirt are made from a different brighter pink that has the white Versace logo repeated over the surface.
• When you move, you get the flash of the different prints and it is fantastic.
• I cannot rave enough about this dress. It is one of the best Versace did both in 2004, and again for 2023.
• The inner layer logo printed pink layer lines the entire dress and it closes with a hidden set side zipper. The dress has its original tags and was never worn.
