The Shrimpton Couture Archives

This is twin of the dress that was worn by Bianca Jagger and Sophia Loren that season. It's Haute Couture by Marc Bohan. One thing to note is that Kai Gerber wore the Oscar de la Renta version of this to the Met Gala in 2021. This is the original couture piece that her dress was based on. It is made out of a black silk on the top with hand embroidery and the skirt is netting. It is an extremely special piece.
