Azzedine Alaïa Spring/Summer 1990 iconic siren dress in a sculpting black stretch knit, featuring the signature fluted fishtail hem seen throughout the collection. Multiple versions of this silhouette appeared on the runway that season in both short and long variations, and the design was also featured in one of the era’s most recognizable Alaïa editorials.
An exceptional example of Alaïa’s body-conscious tailoring, with contour seaming throughout the body, a dramatic mermaid silhouette, and beautiful crossed back straps creating an elegant open back detail. The movement of the pleated hem is especially striking when worn.
Very good vintage condition with light signs of wear consistent with age.
Marked size S, shown clipped/pinned on a smaller frame. Stretch fabric allows flexibility in fit.
