Sensual 2010s Azzadine Alaia Feather Light Knit Jersey Plunging Cut Out Dress
This is a very sexy Azzadine Alaia dress that we think dates to around 2013 when he did that fantastic red dress for Rihanna. It has the same kind of light in weight liquid knit and the play on transparency that her dress had. It is an incredibly beautiful and sexy dress.
The dress is made from one of his signature feather light knits that seem like magic. It is a deep black in colour and the knit has a touch of transparency to it. The bodice has a second inner layer of the knit at the front but even with that you still get a bit of transparency. Each side of the front bodice of the dress falls from the shoulder and is gathered into the waist for a very Grecian feel. It plunges into a low V and an inner piece is scooped to follow that same shape. The sides plunge almost to the waist and then at the back there is a panel that extends out and hooks into place for a low scoop behind the neck. This leaves a large curving open expanse of skin all the way to the waist. It is incredibly sexy. The waist is banded with a horizontally set knit band that has elastic inside so it is very comfortable and easy to fit and wear. The skirt is gathered into that band and it is very full beneath. There are yards and yards of knit in the skirt but when you are standing still it all falls into a column because of how light the knit is. It is only when you move that you realize how many yards of fabric are in the skirt. You get the most fantastic movement as you walk. The dress is in its original uncut length and it appears to have been worn very little if at all. Excellent condition
The front bodice has a second panel behind it and the rest of the dress is unlined. It closes with a hidden set zipper from the waist down and hooks to close at the back. Elastic through the waist.
