Dreamy Vionnet Black Crepe Backless Gown Size 40 IT
Description
An exercise in refined seduction, this 2010's Vionnet gown is cut from fluid black viscose crepe that skims the body and pools into a sweeping train. The front features a daring deep-V neckline, balanced by the drama of a completely open back suspended by delicate spaghetti straps that cross and join at a center back ring.
The back zipper is placed slightly off-center — a deliberate choice that not only preserves the uninterrupted line of the open back but also pays homage to Madeleine Vionnet’s pioneering bias-cut technique. By avoiding a central seam, the viscose maintains its natural drape and movement, allowing the gown to contour the body with ease and elegance.
Founded by Madeleine Vionnet in 1912, the house became synonymous with bias cuts and innovative draping. This piece hails from the label’s 2010s revival era, where those same principles were reimagined for contemporary red carpet glamour.

Please note this dress has some give and the straps are semi-adjustable due to the nature of the keyring detail in the back.
