Crimson Pleated Silk Evening Dress

The finely pleated silk column dress with V-shaped bodice is gathered at the waist with gold cord and dangling tassels. The shoulder, underarm and tassels are finished with signature Venetian glass beads, which serve as weights to balance the feather light silk close to the body.
