Phoebe Philo’s work for Céline has been extraordinarily popular with fashion professionals for whom it represented the intelligent woman’s style of dress. Her draped dress in “Lipstick Fluid” jersey is therefore a sign that pink has become accepted as a grown-up color.
DescriptionDress in pink silk jersey with sleeveless fitted bodice and gathered full skirt with an extended long train with vertical gathering at center back, which allows the train to be flipped over the head to form a self draped cape. Hems are unfinishedCollections
