Vivienne Westwood Nova Cocotte Heavy Silk Satin Long

Vivienne Westwood Nova Cocotte Heavy Silk Satin Long About the Dress: Vivienne Westwood's iconic Nova Cocotte is a gown with great historical influence. The corset and neckline are inspired by fashionable high society women of the 18th century and the fabric, which sweeps across the shoulders, drapes, and falls from the hip, is reminiscent of ancient Greek statues. The dress features Westwood’s masterful corsetry—a sharply tailored, boned bodice that sculpts the waist and lifts the bust, as well as a French bustle. There is a small tear under the right armpit, it is not visible from the outside, but it is from the inside. Just needs a stitch or two, but is not visible when wearing. As well as some minor wear at the very bottom of the train (shown in photos on listing). The dress fits a US size 6, my measurements are: Height: 5'10" Bust: 37" Waist: 28" Hips: 38" Alterations: Had the draped bust cinched in for a "uplifting effect."
