An extraordinarily rare archival treasure from Roberto Cavalli’s legendary Spring/Summer 2001 runway season — widely regarded as one of the most referenced and celebrated collections in the house’s storied history.
The print on this dress is pure surrealist fantasy: a close-up of Elizabeth Taylor’s iconic heavily kohled eye gazes out from the fabric, surrounded by oversized blue roses rendered in dreamy aqua tones, scattered baroque gold jewel medallions, and soft blush pinks. The composition feels part fashion, part fine art — a photographic collage that blurs the line between glamour and painting.
Constructed from luxurious 100% silk, the dress is cut on the bias, allowing the fabric to move and drape with a fluid, body-skimming elegance. A cowl neckline pools softly at the chest, while delicate spaghetti straps hold everything effortlessly in place. The hemline falls asymmetrically, longer at the back with a sweeping handkerchief finish that adds a touch of drama in motion.
Size: Small
Flat measurements: bust 15.5”, waist 13.5”, hips 18.5”. Does have some stretch!
Condition: Excellent!
