Prada vintage Mauve Bowfront Dress from SS 05

From Prada’s lauded Spring/Summer 2005 collection (confirmed by the internal code & matched to archived references) this vintage mauve dress reflects Miuccia Prada’s exploration of romanticism clashing with rawness that season. Cut from airy cotton with a luminous, silk-like sheen, it features a sculptural bow front, subtle sheer tiering with triple-layer lining that moves with understated drama. Side zip, spaghetti straps & this very fabulous dusty hue give this dress (which sits between a midi & maxi) a sense ease and a touch of Bohemia. Yet, theres a l textural element and a tension that somehow unravels the romanticism with an undeniable rawness. A recurring theme throughout this pivotal collection. And something only Mrs. Prada is able to conjure up so effortlessly. Size on tag 44IT, approx a US8 In very good vintage condition. No visible signs of damages., flaws or alttterations. Light wear consistent with age. Measurement estimate available upon request.
