Description
A striking vintage Donna Karan New York bodysuit featuring luxurious deep emerald green velvet contrasted with delicate black lace.
Designed with a plunging neckline, softly structured notched lapels, and long sleeves, the rich velvet upper drapes beautifully into a gently gathered blouson waist. The fitted black lace bottom creates a dramatic contrast, combining sophisticated tailoring with an intimate, lingerie-inspired aesthetic.
Originally retailed through Bergdorf Goodman in New York, this piece captures the sensual, understated glamour associated with Donna Karan’s early collections.
An exceptional statement piece styled with high-waisted tailored trousers, a sleek maxi skirt, or vintage denim.
