Details: A standout runway piece from Gianfranco Ferré’s opulent SS05 collection, this sheer black bodysuit is crafted from intricate floral silk lace and heavily adorned with sculptural beading and crystal hand-embellishment. Two asymmetric lace panels cross over the body, creating an open, draped front that sculpts and frames the form, revealing the silhouette beneath. Multicoloured floral and butterfly embroidery blooms across the lace, adding rich texture and depth. The high neckline fastens at the back with a delicate button closure.
Built into the garment is a form-fitting bodysuit, with the outer lace panels wrapping around the hips and rear to create a layered, architectural silhouette. Attached at the waist is an elongated, fringed scarf-style belt in matching lace designed to be wrapped and loosely knotted, allowing for personalised styling.
Closure: Button fastening at neck; pull-on style with built-in bodysuit support
Styling Notes: On the runway, this piece was layered beneath high-waisted, heavily embellished trousers and structured jackets in jewel tones, animal motifs, and exotic prints—reflecting Ferré’s SS05 vision of maximalist, collaged luxury. Oriental and bohemian elements clashed beautifully across silhouettes, creating a sensual, eclectic aesthetic. Can be styled alone as a statement piece or layered for dramatic impact.
