Spring 2015 Dolce & Gabbana Runway Look 48 Silk Brocade Mini Dress w Elaborate Front Embellishments

• The twin of this dress was Look 48 on the Spring 2015 Dolce and Gabbana runway
• It was made under the creative direction of Domenico Solce and Stefano Gabbana
• This dress was only available as a special order piece and the original price was just over 20,000 euros. They were made on a very limited basis.
• The embellishment on this piece was done to a Couture/Alta Moda level. It combines hand carved metal and has different kinds of embellishments that all been placed by hand in the pattern that you see over the dress on both the front, sides and back. There are small 3D silver flowers with pearls topping them, hand-made red patent leather flowers in various sizes, 3D three layered golden metal carved flowers with red crystal rhinestones, and big hand carved metal plates, with some of rhinestones directly embedded onto the metal plates. It is truly a work of art and showcases the very best of the Dolce ateliers.
• I love that we have reference photos so that you can see how fantastic this is once it sits on an actual body.
• The embellishments cover the entire front bodice of the dress and then run all the way around the band at the waist. The skirt is equally covered at the front with the embellishments continuing around to the sides. I have taken multiple photos, including ones of the dress laying flat so that you can see just how elaborate and wonderful all of the embellishments are.
• The dress is made out of a white silk brocade that has a pattern on pattern to the silk for the perfect backdrop to the elaborate detailing added onto it. 
• The shoulders are soft and the sleeves curve over the top of your shoulder. The neck line is scooped. It skims over your bust to a wide band that highlights the waist. The skirt flares out to a mini length hem. 
• The dress is fully lined in a white silk and closes with a back zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
