A vibrant chartreuse-yellow silk satin mini dress from Roberto Cavalli’s Spring/Summer 2003 collection, reimagining the classic Chinese cheongsam silhouette with the designer’s signature maximalist print work. The dress features a fitted mandarin collar and cap sleeves, with a mock-wrap bodice fastened by traditional frog-style knot closures at the neckline. An asymmetric cutout at the upper back adds a modern, body-conscious edge to the otherwise structured silhouette.
The fabric is printed in a rich, painterly floral and phoenix motif — peonies, chrysanthemums, and long-tailed birds rendered in coral, blue, and gold against the golden-yellow ground, with a gilded trellis lattice pattern woven through the upper portion. Metallic gold threading traces select floral details throughout, adding subtle shimmer. The fitted bodice tapers to a flared, handkerchief-style hem finished with a sheer chiffon underlay, giving movement and flirtatious flounce to the short skirt.
Size: Small
Flat measurements: Bust 15.5”, waist 13”, hips 16”. She has some stretch!!
Condition: Excellent!
