• This is a documented piece dating to 1973.

• Marisa Berenson wore it's twin that year and it appeared in multiple editorials that year.
• It's modern provenance includes being worn by Odeya Rush in 2023 for the 2023 Oscars weekend.
• The dress is completely covered in silver sequins so it catches the light from every angle.
  
• A slit runs up one side and it goes right to the waist seam on that side. Its incredibly sexy.
• This is a very rare and special dress given that it is one of the better documented pieces f his work and its strong association with Marisa Berenson.
