**Vampy Elegance meets French Boudoir Chic**

**The Piece:**
An exquisite archival example of Chantal Thomass’s early 1990s mastery. This ultra-rare "Paris" main-line dress brilliantly juxtaposes hyper-feminine boudoir aesthetics with sharp, masculine tailoring. Crafted from a heavyweight, light-absorbing cotton velvet in a deep, moody plum / aubergine purple (Col. 920), it features striking black silk-satin contrasts at the sculptural neckline and signature tuxedo stripes running the length of the sleeves.

**Condition Report & Curator's Lighting Note:**
Exceptional vintage condition. Meticulously preserved.

*Important Note on Photography:* Please be aware that the bright or white spots visible on the black satin trims in the photos are purely reflections from our studio flash lighting on the high-sheen fabric. The satin is a deep, consistent, and highly glossy black with absolutely zero fading or wear.
*(Note: As with all high-density natural vintage velvet, the fabric is prone to attracting lint, a hallmark of its authentic, heavy-weight quality).*

A Note on Archival Fashion
Please keep in mind that these rare pieces have lived a past life. Minimal signs of wear or a natural patina are entirely normal and part of their unique history.
Care & Condition
I treat every garment with the utmost respect. Each piece is carefully hand-washed, steamed, or ozone-treated so it reaches you in beautiful, ready-to-wear condition. However, due to the age and nature of vintage textiles, a very faint vintage scent may occasionally linger.
Sizing & Fit
To showcase the intended drape and silhouette in our editorial photos, garments that are larger than the model may be subtly pinned. Please never rely on the photos alone for sizing; always use the detailed flat-lay measurements provided in the description to ensure a perfect fit.
Color Accuracy
We strive to capture the true essence of each garment, though slight color variations may occur depending on the lighting and your screen's calibration.
Boutique Policies
To ensure absolute fairness for all of our collectors, we operate strictly on a first-come, first-served basis. We do not accept reservations or higher bids on items that have already been sold. Additionally, as our prices reflect the rarity, authentication, and extensive restoration of each piece, they are strictly non-negotiable. Please take the time to review all measurements and details carefully before securing your piece.
