This brilliant red cocktail dress dates to the first half of the 1950s and is by Omar Kiam for Ben Reig. Kiam is known for using a single dramatic detail on his evening dresses and here he adds a giant hand-painted silk poppy on the shoulder.
Heavenly - such strong impact - and I love the shoes too. Great idea to liven up a dull gown too with such a conspicuous flower. thanks for sharing. Have a nice weekend.
