• The twin of this dress walked the runway for the Spring 2019 Armani collection for the Look 38.
• It was made under the creative direction of Giorgio Armani.
• Vogue said that this collection was "like that familiar whoosh when you sink gratefully into your favourite armchair after a long trip away: utterly recognizable and enveloping." The twin of this dress was Look 38 and was part of a small grouping of the only pink items in the show.
• The top layer of the dress is made out of a silk organza that is beautifully light in weight but still has enough structure to hold the shape that you see.
• The top layer is printed with a pale floral print and this floats under a brighter pink inner silk layer. The colour that you see is the result of the two layers floating over each other.
• The neckline is scooped and the shoulders are soft. Each capped sleeve extends over the top of the shoulder and is gathered along the top edge for a pretty touch of fullness there.
• From there it skims over the bust and widens out around the waist for a easy to fit feel. It continues to widen out over the hips all the way to the hem. 
• The waist is slightly gathered in around a lower dropped seam and it ties to one side. It is made to look as if there is elastic running through the waist and you have just left it open and easy.
• I love how part of the front skirt is pleated and folded over to add to that illusion that it is gathered in with an elastic.
• The dress is meant to fit more loose and easy over the body as you see in a reference photos. If you wanted to change the shape you could add a belt and give it more definition through the waist.
• There are pockets hidden along the seam of each hip.
• The dress is fully lined in brighter pink silk and it slips over the head to wear with no closures. It appears to have been worn very little at all.

• The twin of this jumpsuit walked the runway for the Fall 2019 Gorgio Armani collection as Look 80.
• It was made under the creative direction of Giorgio Armani.
  
• This is from his main label and its twin was also seen on both Cressida Bonas and Kelly Chen. I love having the reference photos so you can see how phenomenal it is once on the body.
• The Fall 2019 show was co-ed with both male and female models on the runway. Vogue said in part that "Armani served a pre-millennial nightclub’s worth of smoky whorl and twist." Velvet, beading and wide silk bands were integral to the looks in the show.
• The base fabric of the jumpsuit is an inky black velvet which gives the beading added on top of the velvet a luxe backdrop.
• The neckline is high and finished with black silk piping. The shoulders are soft and slightly dropped. The arms narrow slightly at the wrist where they are also finished with black silk piping. At the back the fabric wraps over itself to button and snap into place along the neck line. It is a very interesting way to close the piece.
• Starting at the centre of the neckline is a black silk ribbon that is 2.5" wide and it runs all the way down the front to the waist. A second ribbon is attached under that to wrap around the waist and tie at the front so that you can cinch in for as much shape as you want. It can be worn with the waist left more generous and open, or very cinched.
• On the runway, and in the reference photos, you can see that it the bodice is split completely open down each side of the ribbon. That split is technically. there on this one as well but it is currently tacked closed with an added modesty panel under the lower half of it inside. If you wanted the full split feel of the runway, it would be very easy to reverse this and have it completely open on both sides all the way to the waist. 
• It skims over the bust and is cut generously around the waist for a easy to fit feel. The waist is finished with hidden elastic since there is no closure on the jumpsuit and you just simply slip it on to wear.
• From under the waist it curves out over the hips and then the legs fall in a wide straight cut all the way. They are very wide and that combined with the ease and drape of the velvet gives you gorgeous movement as you walk and move. They are a full 26" around the hem of each pant.
• Applied onto the jumpsuit is an intricate script pattern done in little faceted jet beads that are applied directly onto the velvet. These add the perfect amount of sparkle as they catch the light from every angle. If you look closely you will realize that they are his signature.
• I have taken close-ups of the extraordinary amount of bead work that has been done to make these. It is really exquisite workmanship.
• Hidden set pockets sit on each hip for the final perfect detail.
• The jumpsuit is fully lined in fine black silk. It slips onto where and then buttons and snaps around the back of the neck line. It appears to have been worn very little at all.

• The skirt from this set is from the Fall 1998 runway and then sequin top was shown on the runway for Fall 2001.
• It was made under the creative direction of Giorgio Armani.
• The twin of the skirt walk the runway with a fitted long sleeved matching top. That version of the set was used in the ad campaign. It is also featured in their new Archivo online section, worn on the red carpet and featured in an Armani exhibit.
• My client wore it with this sequin top instead that is also from the Armani main line and its twin was in the runway collection. 
• The base of the top is a blue chiffon that is a slightly different shade than the skirt. Because of the heavy application of sequins it works well together.
• The top is a simple tank with a scooped front and back and a more generous cut through the body that makes it very easy to wear.
• It is fully covered in blue iridescent sequins that are laid flat outside by side horizontally. Mixed into that are little tiny, silver, sequins and beads rose of tiny seed, beads and little shots of white sequins and red bead work. It's very pretty and the entire top has the sequence coverage on both the front and the back.
• I love how at the back of the top it's left with no closures for the little bit of the bottom. This is a very Armani signature where he lets part of the closure stay open, so you have that little peak of the skirt underneath it and that little bit of extra movement.
• The skirt is stunning. It's made out of a deep blue silk mix, and it is all cut on the bias. It has a flat front with an inner band that helps to hold it and give structure around the waist.
• From there, it curves out over the hips and expands outward to the floor. The front is cut shorter, and then the back herbs around to become a sweeping train of silk behind you. There is a slit that runs up one side so that when you walk, you get a flash of leg.
• I love that because it is two separate pieces. You can wear these together or mix a match either piece with existing things in your wardrobe.
• The top is fully lined in a blue chiffon and closes with hidden set snaps at the back. The skirt is online and closes with a hidden set side zipper.
• The skirt is tagged a vintage Armani 42 and the top has no size tag present.
• Excellent condition
