• The near twin of this piece in a pale pink walk the runway for Spring 2007 for Look 57.
• The dress was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino.
• This is also the twin on red of the pink dress we recently had in the shop and that one was worn by Julia Schlaepfer to the recent Amfar gala so you can see how beautiful it is on.
• Back in 2007 both Natalia Vodianova and Nicollette Sheridan also wore pink versions of the dress.
  
• It is incredibly beautiful and very light in weight. The colour is that famous Valentino red done in a silk chiffon that is draped beautifully over the dress.
• The dress is strapless and the silk is gathered horizontally over and around the bodice. The gathers extends down past the waist and to the top of the hip for a defined hourglass feel. A pretty raw edged panel of silk is attached and wraps around the waist and is tied in a bow at the side.
• The skirt is full and has beautiful movement. Long strips of the same fabric have been set all the way around the skirt to create long vertical ruffles. This creates an amazing movement when you walk.
• The dress is light in weight and absolutely beautifully made.
• Fully lined in a red silk and has an inner corset that zips on its own. Light inner boning. A hidden set side zipper closes the dress over this inner corset
• Tagged a vintage Valentino 10
