A very pretty and unusual late 1970s, early 1980s Lanvin dress that is as well made as one would expect from a Lanvin. The base of the dress is gorgeous a velvet applique dotted, metallic bronze silk, with a boned bodice that is fitted almost in the manner of a 19th century corset with light boning on all seams.
