RUNWAY LINEN SHIRT DRESS WITH LEATHER-TRIMMED SCULPTURAL SLEEVES

Phoebe Philo for Céline — Summer 2017 Runway Collection

An exceptional runway piece from Phoebe Philo’s acclaimed Summer 2017 collection. Crafted from crisp white linen, the dress combines the familiar language of a classic shirting silhouette with highly architectural construction details that transform it into a true collector’s piece. The defining feature is the extraordinary sleeve construction. Rather than functioning as conventional sleeves, the voluminous folded panels are engineered as sculptural extensions of the garment.

Each panel is framed with contrasting black leather piping that traces the silhouette, highlighting the garment’s architectural lines and emphasizing its distinctive shape from every angle.The oversized proportions are balanced by a sharp pointed collar, a clean button-front closure and subtle gathering across the chest. Size FR34.
