Stunning and highly collectible vintage cocktail dress from the Italian luxury fashion house Gucci, designed for the iconic Fall/Winter 2006 collection.

Both areas are intricately hand-embellished with micro jet-black glass beads, creating a beautiful graphic contrast that narrows the silhouette. The combination of long, sleek sleeves and a beautifully draped skirt delivers the ultimate balance between allure and timeless sophistication.A rare and highly desirable mid-2000s archival piece, perfect for serious fashion collectors and evening wear enthusiasts alike.
