Black haute couture silk velvet dress with high neck, straps down the exposed back, bust darts, and gathering at the waist. The ensemble comes with a matching silk velvet hood that closes with double breasted oversized woven buttons and is lined with black silk. 

This lot also contains a black and white photographic print featuring the dress on a mannequin as it was prepared for an exhibition. The image appears to be taken in the 1980-90s.
