About the Item

Villa & C was part of the prestigious group of Italian couture houses promoted by Giovanni Battista Giorgini in the 1950s. Villa & C was based in Milan, one of the world's primary fashion capitals. Giorgini is widely credited with launching "Made in Italy" onto the international stage through high-profile fashion shows in Florence. At its peak, the house of Villa & C produced high-quality cocktail dresses and formal wear which are now much sought after by collectors This dress is so elegant. It features a round neck; elbow length sleeves, and a wide half belt at the waist. But that is not all - the back has two zippers closures: one a lining the other an unsecured cape which wraps to the front and ends in a wide bow. Research shows that are very few Villa & C pieces from the 50s left.
