Designed by Nicolas Ghesquière for Spring 2003, this iconic and instantly recognizable Balenciaga Scuba dress is made of black cotton jersey with a rich underwater and jungle motif print in bright colors and black Scuba stitching. The dress has a seemingly simple but very sophisticated fitted bodycon cut with a small V-neck, wide elbow-length sleeves with black vinyl stripes and an asymmetrical mini length hem. Side zipper closure. 100% cotton, unlined. Made in France.
