Chanel Spring 2006 Camellia Dress

Oh Marissa Cooper . . . we miss you so. Our Thursday nights are hollow and empty without gawking at your endless teenage trials and tribulations. Newport and the whole of Orange County will never be the same, now that you've departed. Oh well, if we can't see you anymore, prehaps dressing just like you will help. Below ladeez, spy the Chanel Spring 2006 dress adorned by Miss Marissa~played by doe-eyed Mischa Barton~which was also draped on Gemma Ward for the runway (though the dress in the photograph is the show version--the style for purchase in stores and here on our blog features ruching at the bust instead of the large Camellia).

Comprised of a textured crinkled and crushed cream colored silk, this lovely Lagerfeld conconction also features signature Chanel large applique camellias at the hem and pearlized camellia button closures at the back. Only TWO dresses were available in the states. The one worn by Barton and this baby. Originally retailed for $18,000 and priced here at $12,000. In a French 36, though this dazzling dress does run a bit large and would fit a US 6/8. In smashing condition!
