Dramatic Hot Red & Gold Embroidered Evening Ensemble
All creations were originally created for the owner by Margi Kent, c. 1992 - 2005, in Los Angeles.
A breathtaking hot-red net evening gown richly embellished with gold embroidery, featuring exquisite gold lace and floral appliqués, an elegant red ruched camisole with a softly ruched collar, and beautiful scalloped gold-trimmed hem. The gown is accompanied by a stunning matching caplet, designed to drape gracefully around the shoulders, providing an elegant finishing touch—and an extra layer of warmth should the evening turn cooler. The skirt is truly extraordinary, constructed in three dramatic, layered tiers. The upper tier echoes the gown’s red net and gold embroidery, while the second tier flares gracefully in red lace with delicate red floral designs. Beneath it, a third tier of gold lace with an intricate gold-bordered trim adds richness and dimension. The top two tiers feature a gathered, ruched mini-train forming a dramatic V-shape in front, beautifully revealing the contrasting layers beneath. The bottom tier is adjustable, allowing the skirt to be styled as either a sophisticated mid-length evening skirt or a full-length gown. It can also be gathered higher to reveal the leg for a more dramatic, flirtatious look, or worn with the optional red silk-chiffon slip, creating the effect of a flowing full-length red chiffon gown. A spectacular and exceptionally versatile evening ensemble, combining hot-red net, sumptuous gold embroidery, floral appliqués, delicate lace, and dramatic layered construction. With its remarkable styling options and richly detailed craftsmanship, this is a truly distinctive statement piece designed to command attention. All elements of this outfit were designed and crafted by famous fashion and costume designer Margi Kent. Photographed with all coordinating elements, as well as the front, back, label and lining details. Size and measurements upon request. This full fashion outfit is sold as a full ensemble set. • Approx. Size ~8 to 8/10; Approx.
