JEAN PAUL GAULTIER SHEER MESH TANK DRESS WITH RED DOT PRINT 1990S

Sale price$1,200.00

Resurrection is excited to offer a vintage Jean Paul Gaultier sheer mesh tank dress featuring an allover red dot print and intricate brown paisley-inspired borders. The elongated, body-skimming silhouette is both understated and provocative, allowing Gaultier's signature manipulation of sheer fabric and pattern to take center stage.

Crafted from lightweight sheer black mesh, the dress features a simple scoop neckline and slim shoulder straps finished in the same ornate brown patterned textile that trims the neckline and hem. The allover print consists of irregular red-brown circular motifs outlined in cream, becoming more densely arranged toward the lower portion of the dress. The midi-length silhouette falls straight from the body with a subtle flare toward the hem, while the contrasting patterned border creates a beautiful finishing detail. The back features a low scoop neckline and a small horizontal button closure at the upper back.

Gaultier's use of printed stretch mesh became one of the most recognizable elements of his Archive, particularly throughout the 1990s. His mesh designs frequently combined body-skimming transparency with trompe l'oeil, polka dots, tattoo-inspired graphics, and unexpected decorative motifs. Archival examples include a S/S 1987 sheer polka-dot dress and numerous printed mesh designs from the 1990s, including the celebrated S/S 1999 Soleil collection.

A beautiful archive example of Gaultier's ability to turn a simple tank dress into something highly distinctive through transparency, print, and intricate detailing. The restrained silhouette allows the unusual dot pattern and ornate borders to become the focus, making this an exceptionally versatile piece for collectors of Gaultier's iconic mesh designs. Carefully Curated by Resurrection as part of our luxury vintage collection.
