Vive de Ribes

From the designer/comtess once voted the most fashionable woman in the world, Jacqueline de Ribes, we bring you an amazing summer gown. This bright coral evening gown is constructed of four major sections that are gathered at the waist with a lucite rectangle of the same color. The top of the gown is a halter construction with a deep V that meets a waistband at the hip. From there an above knee skirt is blanketed by a ankle length skirt with a front slit from the waist down. The straps, along with the small V give the back of the gown a tulip shape. This is an amazingly constructed gown from the mind of a true fashion icon and would be a pinnacle in the greatest of couture collections.
