Christian Lacroix designs the most impressive, colorful, unique and astounding gowns and cocktail dresses that one can only describe as 'masterpieces'.

This breathtaking embroidered one-shoulder evening gown is a perfect example of his genius. This 3 piece ensemble features a black asymmetric layered skirt embellished with colorful threading and an organza overlay.
