This John Galliano gown from the Spring-Summer 2000 collection is crafted in black bias-cut satin. The design features an asymmetric, strapless neckline with architectural seam detailing and diagonal panel construction. The gown incorporates corsetry elements, including lace-up sides with ties and eyelet accents, enhancing its form-fitting silhouette. A dramatic floor-length hemline extends into a train at the back, emphasizing its couture construction. The internal structure is reinforced with boning to provide shape and support. Finished with a concealed side zipper for closure, this piece exemplifies Galliano's signature blend of romanticism and innovation in fabric manipulation and design.
