1950s Pink Brocade Ceil Chapman Gown designer-givenchy Layers of a bright pinkI absolutely love the color of this piece it's a beautiful combination of three shades of pink with a swirling design in gold thread delicately woven through the fabric. That gives it a subtle glow and really highlights and showcases the design of the fabric. The cut is fairly simple with long sleeves and a notched neckline. The waist nips in and the skirt is set into the waist with soft gathers at the top, done so that you don't get any bulk around
