Dreamy Spring 2019 Oscar de la Renta by Laura Kim & Fernando Garcia Runway Look 57 Gold Silver Bead Caftan Dress
- The twin of the dress walked the runway for Look 57 of the Spring 2019 Oscar de la Renta collection.
- It was made under the creative direction of Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia.
- This was a piece that had absolutely beautiful movement on the runway and while it is stunning it is also easy to wear. It is a definite show stopper and I love it.
- The dress is amazing. It is made out of a light weight metallic silk mix lame that is exceptionally light in weight. The colour is hard to define in person because it has both gold and silver ultra fine threads woven horizontally to make up the fabric. This lets it look more gold in some lights and more silver in others.
- I love that since it is in such a light and beautiful metallic colour that this is a piece that might play double duty and also work for a bride or for an extended wedding weekend.
- The dress is cut in a long minimalist sheath that widens out softly as it nears the hem. It is meant to skim over you from bust to hips before it starts to do that soft flare out on the lower skirt.
- The neckline is scooped and the entire upper bodice and upper shoulders are made out of a nude mesh so that from a distance it appears that the dress is just suspended magically around you.
- The mesh above the edge of the neckline and sleeves have a scattering of tiny gold sequins that also scatter down and around the top of the metallic fabric. Set all the way around the entire neckline and around the top of the sleeves are long strand of metallic silver tube beads mixed with fine little gold linked chains. Is create a long and fabulous fringe effect. It is a stunning detail that adds beautiful impact to the dress and also creates fantastic movement as you move. You can see that in the runway video.
- The sleeves are the absolute star of the show beyond the elaborate embellishment added to the top of the dress. A caped sleeve starts with the nude mesh at the top and then changes to the same metallic fabric as the dress. These fall over the top of your arm and then widen out to cascade all the way to the hem. They are open underneath so that they can catch the slightest bit of air and billow out around and behind you when you move. It is the perfect touch of drama added to an already outstanding dress.
- The dress is fully lined in a nude silk chiffon and slips on to wear with a button closure above a back keyhole. The loose and easy cut should fit a range of sizes. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
