This dress was not presented on the runway but a version was made for Rhianna for her to wear to the Fall 2014 Dior show. The dress was then seen on a huge variety of stars. Rita Oro loved it so much she wore it in 2014 and then again two years later in 2016. Selena Gomez wore it in both black and red and it appeared in her music video that year as well. Dior pulled it from their own archives for Natalie Portman to wear it to shoot the Miss Dior 'Rouge Dior' campaign in 2016. Irina Shank, Lucy Hale and Elsa Hosk all made appearances in it as well. The Raf Simmons era at Dior has become extremely collectible and this dress in particular is perhaps the most documented and well known pieces from his time there.

This dress is incredible. The shape is a play on the famous rounded hips of the bar jacket transformed into an incredibly modern micro mini. The fabric choice of the silk matte satin gives it a strong and powerful feel. You see Raf's tendency towards clean and simple lines while still honoring one of the most definitive shapes of the house with the overtly shaped and rounded hips. The top is the barest suggestion of a halter at the front with a deep plunge. They have built in cups inside for support and to add shape. The back is cut straight across, low on the back and I love how the straps curve down across the bare expanse of skin to meet that line. The waist curves in under the bust and is defined by a series of vertical seams. The skirt is wonderful and it curves out and is shaped by seaming and the fabric to hold that gorgeous curve that you see. It is cut to micro mini length. The dress looks to have never been worn or worn very little. Excellent condition

Fully lined in a black silk and closes with a hidden set back zipper. Built in, hidden cups for support in the bust. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. Tagged a US4. Note it was small on my dress form and the back does close all the way up at the back to make a straight across line there.
