Gucci Tom Ford Runway Rare Cocktail Dress S/S 1997 Green Blue Ombre Velvet EU 38

100% Authentic—personally purchased by me in Miami. New with Tags—This is a beautiful, iconic, timeless piece by Gucci designed by Tom Ford. Italian size 38, which fits a US size extra small or small. The dress/skirt does not come with straps, as I intended to wear it as a tube dress & skirt. I had the straps removed. The stock photos display straps, and I would recommend a master seamstress if straps are preferred. The sales lady suggested another option was to wear it as a maxi skirt. Tag has red (faint) mark. Similar beauty was sold on another site used for $3250.00. The dress was designed by Tom Ford for the Spring/Summer 1997 runway collection. This dress is a runway piece from an unforgettable era of fashion. Tom Ford brought exquisitely sleek minimalism to Gucci, making every collection as memorable as the last.
