• The dress is from the Spring 2007 Collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Roberto Cavalli
• This is an absolutely beautiful bias cut silk dress who's cut is a nod to old Hollywood in feel.
• The entire dress is covered with a very pretty and intricate leaf and bird print. This runs over its entire surface and the print has a slightly metallic feel with colours centring around a deep red, rust and a coral.
• The front is gathered in and up to the neck and at the centre of where it is gathered, there is a gold toned metal snake that is placed so that it sits at the top of the gathers. The silk extends out from there to curve up and behind the neck where it ties into place. There is a tiny keyhole under the snake detail at the front and the front drapes down and over your bust, waist and hips from there.
• The halter neckline leaves the back completely open. I love how the fabric that comes around from the front is set so there is a pretty curve at the base of your back. This is highlighted even more by the silk ties that extend out from the neck trailing down the middle of your back.
• Once passed the hips the skirt flares out beautifully. This full shape at the bottom of the dress is created by the addition of added panels set all the way around skirt to help it flare out. This extra silk placement creates amazing movement when you move.
• This is classic Cavalli and an absolutely beautiful piece of work.
• The dress is unlined and closes with a hidden set back zipper. The ties that extend out from the neck can be tied and left to trail down the back. The dress is cut on the bias so I have put the comfortable range when laying flat. The length will come up a touch once on a body. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
