  • This dress is from the Spring 2004 Valentino collection
  • It was made under the creative direction of the original, Mr. Valentino
  • We have included some photos from the Spring 2004 Valentino collection of dresses with similar elements to this one. This is a dress that was produced for the shops and it is absolutely gorgeous.
  • The dress is made out of a feather light black silk chiffon and the lightness of this fabric choice creates a soft and romantic feel as it floats over your body.
  • The entire dress is cut to allow it to drape beautifully over the body and highlight your curves.
  • The bodice is finished with tiny and precise pleats that wrap all the way around to the back. The top of the bodice is gathered into a sweetheart and the back sits on a slight curve to leave the upper back bare and exposed.
  • A ruffled panel of black silk chiffon is set along straps that are meant to sit off the shoulder. Once this is on a body, it will sit around the upper arm. I think, depending on the space between the shoulder and bodice you might also be able to wear this on the top of the shoulder.
  • The waist is cinched and seamed to follow the curve of the body.
  • From there it curves out and over the hips and the panels of chiffon that make up the skirt float around you as the skirt falls to the floor.
  • The skirt is a little masterpiece in its own right. It is actually made of a series of panels that are all set in around the waist. They are attached together to just under the hip and sat in a way so that they overlap each other as they fall to the floor.
  • Each panel is a long rectangle that widen out to their curved ends. Each of the individual panels are finished with a ruffle of a matching black silk chiffon that runs all the way around the entire panel. I love how the ruffle is smaller near the top of the hip and then also widen out as it circles around the bottom of each panel.
  • The panels overlap each other as they curve around you but there is no inner lining. It is the overlapping and the multiple layers of the panels that make it opaque enough to wear.  Besides making it wearable, the separation of the panels once they get past the hip area is what allows the extraordinary amount of movement that the skirt has when you move. 
  • The silk chiffon that was used is feather light and the dress is a dream in person.
  • The dress is fully lined in a black silk chiffon through the bodice and the skirt is constructed as described above. It closes with a hidden set side zipper.  It is in its original uncut length. I see a tiny repair near the hem and along the hem. Both extremely minor. It otherwise.appears to have been worn very little if at all.

Perfect
Format: Hardcover
This was my first book purchase, top notch quality and the feeling every page as you touch and turn it is satisfying, delivery was also earlier than anticipated. Some of the concept art in the book is available online if you know where to look, but there are some never seen before art in there too, plus the tidbits shared by the developers is nice and gives cool behind the scenes information, overall a great deal for any Deus Ex fan.

Yes, I Absolutely Asked For This.
Format: Hardcover
The Art of the Deus Ex Universe is a gorgeous artbook that encompasses Eidos Montreal’s past two Deus Ex games, Deus Ex Human Revolution and Deus Ex Mankind Divided. It starts with the foreword by the creator of Deus Ex Warren Spector who talks about the game he created being a classic and giving his approval of the latest games saying they keep the spirit of the original alive. From there you get five chapters of great art and behind the scenes commentary by the Art Director Jonathan Jacques-Belletete and Martin Dubeau. The five chapters are in order characters, weapons and tech, locations, the breach, and in-game adverts. The last two are short and brief compared to the first three chapters. You see the concepts on how they nailed the uniques aesthetic designs of Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. The “cyber-renaissance” look, as the art director calls it. The art style of these games give off a Cyberpunk dystopian look; that does not seem too far fetched to believe might happen. The Art of the Deus Ex Universe is a fantastic art book you get two games in one art book. You get good looking art concepts and fun making of Deus Ex facts. Such as the colors pink, violet and purple do not exist in the world of Deus Ex giving the visual metaphor of Eliza Cassan being an AI as she the only person who wears purple in the entire two games. There are many fun facts like that all over the art book as well as the beautiful artwork. A must for Deus Ex afficandos!

Even if you're not big into books, you totally asked for this one!
Format: Hardcover
Eidos Montreal's work in the Deus Ex series is a standout in the science fiction genre in terms of art direction. The art design in their games is a unique mixture of classical elegance and technological achievement; it is both gorgeous in some ways and somber in others. This book is an excellent showcase of art, and it also provides meaningful developer commentary on the rationale behind many designs seen in the games. Overall, this artbook is excellent, and a must-have for fans of the series who enjoyed the art design of the games.

a nice retrospective of the art of the Deus Ex Universe
Format: Hardcover
Overall, a nice retrospective of the art of the Deus Ex Universe. However, there are areas where it could have further excelled. More in-game, non-character model, non-landscape art would have been great (they give you a few pages of in-game posters and the like, I would have preferred that they covered more of this). There is a smattering of things that were designed but not used, I would have loved to see that explored as it's own section in the book. We know that they had planned, at one time, to have things take place in a few more locales in Human Revolution, it would have been great to see some of the early concept art for those sections. Neither of the mobile Deus Ex games were touched upon at all in the book. Granted there isn't much material that could be covered with them, but nonetheless, a page or two about them would have been nice. My biggest complaint? The book is just barely too tall to fit on my bookshelf.

Lovely
Format: Hardcover
Packaging was fine. BooK was near perfect condition. As for the book, it’s absolutely beautiful. It doesn’t include all of the concept art I’ve been able to find online but it does have a bunch and I love having it in this physically accessible place. It’s bigger than I thought it would be in terms of height and width and thicker than I thought it would be. Very happy. The art for this video game series is absolutely stunning.
