Spectacular Spring 2012 Emilio Pucci by Peter Dundas Runway Look 14 Pink Print Dress w Multi Layered Skirt

• The twin of this dress was presented for Look 14 for the Spring 2012 Pucci collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Peter Dundas. 
• Is twin was worn by Anja Rubik that season and was one of the dresses featured in the opening of the New York boutique launch within Saks Fifth Avenue. 
• I love that the photos and videos give you an idea of how gorgeous this is on the body.
• The fabric is an ultra light silk mixed fabric. This gives it an almost transparent feel and even though there is a lot of fabric in the dress it still stays pretty light in weight. It has been completely covered in a classic Pucci print and I love how the underskirt have another classic print in a deeper pink and coral for added contrast. I have taken close-ups so that you can see how beautiful the print is and I love that Peter Dundas did such a strong nod to the house legacy.
• Two tiny straps curved up and over the shoulders and the bust curves around at the front. It dips into a shallow V at the back to leave your upper back bare.
• The body skims over the bust and is cut generously around the waist to the dropped seam that circles from the top of the hip and slightly lower on the other side. There is a contrasting border around the neckline and another to follow that angled seam that goes around the hip.
• The skirt is set into the bodice on a slant at the front and on a dipped angle towards one side at the back.
• It widens out from there and the more generous feel through the waist and hips have all been done deliberately to support the multilayered tiered skirt underneath.
• The skirt is made up of multiple tiers of wide panels of printed silk stacked on top of each other. All of the panels are set on angles so that they overlap the panels below. Everything is offset to wrap around you in layers. This leaves the front at one side slightly shorter so you have a bit of leg showing when you walk and an uneven deliberate handkerchief hem all the way around you. It curves up at the front and then falls longer at the back. There is a tremendous amount of fabric in the skirt and between the ruffles and the lightness of the silk and cotton fabric it has phenomenal movement around you as you move.
• I love how the very innermost layers are a more a coral, pink and red instead of the light pink and ivory. This anchors the dress and gives a shot of unexpected colour when you move.
• The dress is one of my favourites of all the modern pieces of Pucci that I have seen and the era that Peter Dundas was the creative director at Pucci is 100% my favourite of the modern predecessors to Emilio.
• The bodice is lined in a pale pink silk chiffon and the layers through the skirt act as the line in there. It closes with hidden set side zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
