A beautifully rare piece from Theyskens’ Theory, this black layered mini dress reflects Olivier Theyskens’ signature blend of romance and modern minimalism. The dress features a two-layer construction: a fitted inner slip with a subtle sheen, paired with a sheer chiffon overlay that drapes fluidly around the body.
The outer layer creates a cape-like silhouette with soft mid-length sleeves and an open, free-moving back. Lightweight, airy, and quietly dramatic, this piece shifts effortlessly from day to evening and delivers that understated-luxury feel Theyskens is known for.
Colour: Black
Material: Silk overlay, stretch underlay
Design Features:
– Layered mini dress design – Fitted inner slip with slight shimmer – Sheer chiffon outer cape layer – Dramatic open-back drape – Scoop neckline – Back zip on inner slip
