You’re sure you’ve seen this dress before. At the 1939 Oscars.

On Eleanor Lambert’s highly coveted best dressed list.

Maybe it was typed onto the pages of a romanclef,along with the other swans, stuffed into a bookshelf on the 22nd floor of the U.N. Plaza. Capote’s revenge, as it were.

Or perhaps this scintillating sheath was seen in a vision – something invitation only, something you wanted them to remember you by, somethinghe’d never forget.

Regardless, we saw it too.

Answered Prayers Velvet Dress (N. 5811). Ultra-elegant silk-blend velvet sheath dress cut on the bias. We are all different shapes and sizes, and this dress doesn’t discriminate. Fabulous, glamorous, maybe even a little scandalous, on all forms. Wonderfully period-draped cowl neckline. Dyed-to-match sheer lace at upper back with cowl detail below lace. Upper-calf length. Full lined. Imported.
