It is perhaps the most iconic of all of the Halston silhouettes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn 2016 the twin of this dress entered modern day fashion history when Kate Moss wore its twin on the red carpet at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe have had Martha Hunt wear a white one version that she sourced from us to Cannes. She landed on several Best Dressed lists as a result. These were made in a variety of colours and this one is a gorgeous red coral colour with a slight orange undertone to it. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere is a certain sexiness caused by the illusion of having the entire dress suspended by one shoulder. It gives the sense that the entire dress could drop in a puddle around you. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt is constructed from two attached layers. The inner dress skims over the body in a long sheath. The inner part of the dress has a high slit that travels up the side of the leg opposite to the draped side. So when you walk or sit you get a flash of leg. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAttached to that inner sheath lies a draped panel of the same fabric that is suspended from the shoulder. This falls from that shoulder and drapes down and over the front and the back of the dress so that the jersey cascades loosely down and over you. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a classic dress by Halston that is perfect for travelling as it is wash and wear and so easy to style. A quick change of shoe takes it day to night in a snap. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe dress slips on to wear with a hook at the top of one shoulder. It should fit a variety of sizes since it is not cut to be super fitted and the jersey does have some stretch. I have put the comfortable range of stretch of the inner part of the dress below. Part of the hem was sewn by hand and it has been left as found.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTagged a vintage Halston 8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust: 16-19\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eWaist: 18-20\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eHip: to 20\" flat across from side seam to side seam\u003cbr\u003eTotal length: 54\" from top of shoulder to longest point of hem\u003cbr\u003eSlit: 29\" from hem up\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModern Sizing Equivalent: XS-MED\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItem# DD5804\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAll items are thoroughly checked over before shipping.
