You may recall this eye catching gold cocktal dress seen on Amal last year - we only got glimpses of it but popular blogs and celeb watchers soon identified it as Vionnet. Now these often "once worn" or still with tags fashions from last year are turning up in consignment stores or on eBay. Still expensive at even a fraction of this original price this Vionnet gold dress as seen on Amal Clooney is currently for sale on eBay for less than half the original price at a starting bid of US $999.00. It is the kind of dress that I would be scared to wear when I consider the cost per wear, even if a simple gold dress is neutral enough to wear repeatedly it would still hang unworn in the closed most of the time.
