Beautiful 2000s Emilio Pucci Ivory Silk One Shoulder Caftan Dress w Gold & White Beaded Detail

This is a fabulous Pucci that I think is a production piece for the shops from the Peter Dundas era at Pucci. It is an absolutely gorgeous dress that is easy to wear and very flattering on. I love that it is a beautiful ivory colour would allow it to be worn by a bride looking for something non-traditional or as part of a extended wedding weekend. Though it would also work for any fabulous occasion. It has an easy to wear caftan feel to it but at the same time there is a clever single seam that runs from just under the arm and down one side of the body that gives the dress just a touch of shape. The silk has been cut on the bias and this lets it move with you as you move. The ivory silk has enough weight to make it flattering as it skims and drapes over you but that is still light enough that it easily moves. The dress has the absolute minimal seaming and it is cut to simply fall from that one single shoulder in a cascade of fabric. The other shoulder is left bare and exposed. On the side that is covered the fabric falls over the arm and down to the floor on a slight angle that keeps it from feeling like too much fabric. Starting from under the one arm and running up and over the other shoulder is a wide band of white tube beads mixed with muted gold beading. These catch the light in a subtle way and add a little bit of extra glamour to the piece. The side that is set on an angle is open beneath that inner set seam that runs to just about the hip area so you get a flash of bare leg when you walk or sit. It a subtle bit of sexiness that is amazing. The dress moves like a dream and feels like it just floats around you as you move. It is just a fantastic dress. Excellent condition with one small note below.

Unlined and slips on to wear with a hidden set zipper under the arm. The easy fit should allows it to work on almost any size. Tagged a IT42 FR38 US8 UK10. In its original uncut supermodel length. I see some minor grubbiness around the hem area
