..This pretty dress is missing its original belt, but other than that it is perfect. Done in fine silk, in a show stopping apple green floral print. The closing of the dress is quite complex. There is a inside, hook close gross grain waistband, a wonderful green metal zipper down the front, then a series of snaps and hooks to finish the wrap effect.

..The back of the dress has the most wonderful draped plunge for a very sexy look. The Nouvelle Boutiqe line was Givenchy's first "ready to wear line" but there are so many couture details in this dress, I hardly consider it a ready to wear. Not even the finest modern couture can match the styling and details of this divine dress.
