Vintage Adrianna Papell 100% silk equestrian shift dress purple jewel tone

Stunning vintage silk shift dress by Adrianna Papell, likely from the late 1980s or early 1990s. Features a rich, jewel-tone purple base covered in an elegant, novelty equestrian print with detailed horse bits, stirrups, straps, and gold/bronze/brown medallions. This piece beautifully captures the timeless, heritage Old Money aesthetic. Designed in a classic, relaxed shift silhouette with short sleeves, a subtle button-front neckline (with the remainder of the buttons hidden behind the placket), and a fluid drape that moves beautifully. Would look amazing belted — we added a vintage brown leather one for inspiration; it’s not included in the price (but is for sale). A gorgeous statement piece for collectors and vintage lovers alike! Tagged a size 16, please see photos for details and flat sizing, which suggests this would fit a 16/18 or XL. Note: a couple of the flat photos are washed out; this piece is a stunning jewel-tone purple that the dress form photos more fully capture. Approximate flat measurements: pit-to-pit: 24” waist: up to 24” hips: up to 24” shoulder to hem: 43.5”
