This entire collection had overt sexual overtones to it and it was the precision cut and placement of fabrics that made it so

The dress is fully lined in an off-white taffeta feel rayon stretch

The fabric is very light in weight but it is still well constructed so feels amazing on

This is not a runway piece and the date is based on my clients recollection and similar pieces sold from this year that we have sold in the past

1950s Demi-Couture Level Nazareth Velvet Applique Dress designer-azzedine-alaia This entire collection had overtThis dress is absolutely incredible and made to very high standards with lots of demi couture level finishes. It really is a beautiful little dress and I suspect that at one point it had a designer label but that is lost to time and it now only has the label "Nazareth" which I suspect was a shop name and secondary label back in its day. It is really is a thing of beauty it is made of three distinct fabrics an inky black cotton velvet for the main body
