This rare 1960s Pierre Balmain haute couture gown executed in a fluid, matte black cotton, showcasing Balmain’s signature architectural restraint softened by artisanal embellishment. The sleeveless, columnar silhouette is clean and elongated, subtly cinched at the waist with a bow to maintain structure without interrupting line. Hand-applied beading and embroidery in turquoise and antique gold frame the neckline and hem, introducing a couture-level decorative rhythm that contrasts elegantly with the sobriety of the body. A masterpiece in restrained opulence. 

The dress is an original size S, but please refer to the measurements for the right fit.

This item is in very good overall condition, although please note this is a vintage item with some signs of wear consistent with age.
