PAINTING BY NUMBERS

It's been a long time since we have had an 80s-era Karl Lagerfeld for Chloe hand-painted water colored nymph gown. The last one we had was in 1997 when we first opened this store and it was modeled in Vogue by a certain actress who would KILL us if we revealed that was the year the shoot came out, as she is rather ageless! Nearly fourteen years later, we are elated to offer this amazing rose-hued halter dress that is belted and has attached long sashes of fabric that can be worn a multitude of ways. It is possible to tie them low behind your derriere to dramatically gather and change the shape of the skirt with a train. Alternatively, the extra wings of fabric can be pulled over your shoulders to create a very unusual cowl/scarf neck. It's difficult to capture the one-of-a-kind details of this creative and artistic gown, but we hope the nymph in our elite clientele base will be revealed and take this heavenly concoction to her Goddess Abode.




Chloe by Karl Lagerfeld water colors inspired hand painted gown, c. 1980s. Marked size 38, modern 2 to 4. SOLD TO SOMEONE DELICIOUS!
