Cleoville | Vintage 1950s 1960s Black pleated skirt Dress with gold duo-tone asymmetric Color blocking
This simple duo-tone, color-blocked dress reminds us of Elizabeth Taylor as Cleopatra, for some reason or another.
Perhaps it's the crispness of the lines between black and gold-tone. Or the pleated skirt and the way it flows in the wind. But there is something in there that goes beyond the 2 colours it presents the world. Something deeper, no? ;)
Pinned?: No.
