Recent Giambattista Valli Cableknit Dress
The cut of the dress is so unusual and flattering when on! The skirt is set high under the bust line and has soft pleats worked into the knit there. It rounds out at the hips and then comes back in at the knee. Above this the bodice is done in huge chunky rows of a cable knit and they appear to twist over each other and wrap around the wearer. The shoulder can sit high or low off the shoulders. There Is a built in flexible net inside the bodice - this combined with the knit perfectly shapes it self to the girl inside and if you don't need extra support you can get away with nothing else underneath. The wool is a good quality virgin wool. It is astonishing that he can take a chunky knit and somehow transform it into cocktail appropriate chicness and also not add a crazy amount of bulk to the wearer in the process. It is definitely sexy! Excellent condition.
