Dreamy Spring 2002 Blumarine Runway Black Silk Net & Chiffon Floral Sequin & Bead Dress z-archive-valentino From the Dior Boutique collection

From the Dior Boutique collection comes this gorgeous little silk dress in a beautiful floral pattern made of shades of pink screened onto a lovely silk taffeta

Besides the volume this creates it also directly relates to the shapes that Yves intended the pieces in this collection to have

trailing feel around you whenever you move

The top layer has beaded over little bursts done in gold metallic thread to form and cover the entire dress

a feat all the more remarkable considering it was presented months after the season ended

Dreamy Spring 2002 Blumarine Runway Black Silk Net & Chiffon Floral Sequin & Bead Dress z-archive-valentino From the Dior Boutique collectionThese beaded floral pieces were a significant part of the spring 2002 Blumarine show and collection with several pieces having this bead and sequin floral pattern on them. On the runway a very similar dress was shown with no lining inside the top portion of the dress and with a belt added over the hips that brought in some red and pink fringes to the look. Once this went to the stores it was sent lined so the top is slightly more opaque and wearable.
