Go Anne Rice! Check this out…
When Anne Rice first ordered this authentic Chinese wedding dress to be fashioned entirely out of black fabric, the Chinese dress-makers refused, fearing that to do so would bring bad luck. But bad lack was nowhere on the horizon when the mega-best selling author wore the finished product as she promoted some of the most successful novels of her entire career. Complete with a feathered head-dress that combines elements of traditional New Orleans Mardi Gras with the more classic costume styles of Venetian Carnivale, this elegant, floor-length gown features elaborate beading across the chest and shoulders. This one-of-a-kind gown is a sumptuous artifact from a more extravagant and spectacular time in the life of one our nation’s most famous and controversial novelists.
