Azzedine Alaïa S/S 1986 Runway Blue Knit Halter Neck Bodycon Backless Dress in size M/L.
Presenting an incredibly elegant backless Azzedine Alaïa halter dress from the 80's that was featured on the runway. The dress is made from the recognisable slinky, smooth, and luxurious feeling acetate fabric, which accentuates your body in all the right places, and was seen more often in Alaïa's creations. The simplicity in the design radiates class. The halter features three press buttons, and there are another 3 placed on the right below the back. Initially, it were 4 buttons, but over time 1 got lost and is replaced with a hook an eye for a clean and authentic look. This dress was shown on the runway in a slightly longer version. A true collectors item.
Size: The size tag is missing, but best fits a size M/L as the fabric is stretchy. For the ideal fit I recommend this dress for a body type that has some more volume at the chest area than our model has. Please refer to the measurements.
Colour: Deep but bright blue. Beware: The colour of the dress is showing slightly darker on the mannequin than it is in real life, please refer to the colour swatch photo for an accurate representation.
Composition: the composition tag is missing, but it's made from a 100% Acetate
Condition: In excellent vintage condition with only 2 tiny pulls, as highlighted in the photos.
Initially, the were 4 press buttons at the back side, but over time 1 got lost and replaced with a hook an eye for a clean and authentic look.
