It came down the Fall 2013 runway last. The dazzling closing look.
Karlie Kloss walked it in the finale — the bejeweled one, the look the press tagged for the red carpet before Cody Horn took it there, to the CFDA Awards.
Not a beaded dress. An object. Fifteen pounds of it.
The bodice is paved edge to edge in hundreds of hand-set crystals, cut rough like ore, over a black silk-faille skirt that breaks short in front and sweeps into an asymmetric train. A second paved layer underneath. Every stone set by hand. Couture precision on an American runway.
House label, no size tag, no content tag — made for the show, not the store.
None like it for sale anywhere. Not on the resale sites, not in the archives. The commercial pieces from that collection circulate. This one doesn't.
Wear it where the room is the point.
Fully lined. Concealed back zip.
