I absolutely adore this printed Lanvin dress with its amazing mod feeling design screened onto the crepe fabric. It feels especially appropriate right now with what is happening over at Gucci and has that same vibe to it. It is so bright and cheerful and done in the perfect coral hues to flatter most skin tones. It is cut straight through the waist in that classic shift shape so it is very comfortable and easy to wear. You can also use the original tie belt to define and cinch in the waist even more. I love the the long sleeves with their cuffed ends and slight fullness just above each wrist. It buttons down the front, allowing you to leave it undone and quite low to add a flash of skin, or keep it buttoned up. A neat little pointed collar is the perfect finishing detail. Excellent condition with two small items to note below.
Unlined and buttons to close down the front. Original matching fabric belt. Each sleeve closes with a button. Note that there are three missing buttons - two on one cuff and one on the front. One front button also has its cover missing. You could move the other cuff buttons to the front and replace all the cuff buttons and just have those natch each other. We also note some slight stretching to the threads at the seams - all are sewn but you can see the threads if you flatten out the seams. Sold as found (but dry cleaned of course) and priced at a steal.
