1998 Thierry Mugler Documented Zebra Print Silk One-Shoulder Dress
Description
This runway documented silk, one-shoulder dress was made in France by Thierry Mugler in 1998. A mirror image of this silhouette - but in cream silk - walked the runway as look 37/67 for the label’s Spring 1998 Couture show. The dress is resplendent in silk, patterned with a decadent brown and cream zebra print. The master of empowering, hyper-feminine tailoring, this dress has a structured shoulder and single slim-cut sleeve. It is draped to wrap around the body; a layer of fabric falls from the shoulder, skimming the curves and finishing with an asymmetric, handkerchief hemline that hits from the knee down to the calf. The dress fastens under the left arm with a hidden tonal zip and a hook-an-eye clasp.
In truly excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note and looks barely worn. The fabric composition is 100% Silk with a lining of 100% Acetate. The dress is labelled a French size 40 but please check our measurements below as vintage Mugler is not generous. The dress has no stretch and we think it better suited to size UK 8-10 or US 4-6.
