A champagne mesh and silk spaghetti strap dress with a knotted bodice and button-front skirt, the combination of sheer mesh and silk producing the kind of barely-there, body-conscious dressing that defined the most desirable French ready-to-wear of the 1990s. The knotted bodice is a considered detail that adds structure and visual interest to what might otherwise read as purely minimal, while the button-front skirt offers both ease of wear and a subtle nod to the utilitarian-meets-sensual aesthetic that ran through the decade's best design. Plein Sud, the French label founded by Farah Savah, built its reputation on exactly this register: sensual, precisely cut, and uncompromisingly Parisian in its understanding of the female body pieces from the label's 1990s output are increasingly sought after by collectors of the era.
