Late 1990s -Early 2000s Lanvin Draped Purple Jersey One Shoulder Dress

The Shrimpton Couture Archives

  • From the main Lanvin label
  • Made from a beautiful purple jersey that has a bit of stretch in it
  • It has a one shoulder silhouette and the top of the shoulder twists around for a bit of added detail
  • The front drapes over the bodice and that twist at the shoulder extends and creates a beautiful draped panel feel over the front.
  • The waist has elastic so it is very easy to fit
  • The dress falls to the floor from there. When you stand still, it is in a lovely column, but when you move or walk, you see that it does have some volume through the skirt.
  • Hidden pockets along each hip
  • The top is lined in the second layer of the same fabric and the skirt is unlined.
  • Take a vintage Lanvin 40
  • Excellent condition
