.. Givenchy was at the absolute height of vogue when this dress was created. A favorite of Audrey Hepburn, he designed elegant creations that flattered almost any figure.

..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.
