1950s Demi-Couture Level Nazareth Velvet Applique Dress designer-azzedine-alaia How could you notThis dress is absolutely incredible and made to very high standards with lots of demi couture level finishes. It really is a beautiful little dress and I suspect that at one point it had a designer label but that is lost to time and it now only has the label "Nazareth" which I suspect was a shop name and secondary label back in its day. It is really is a thing of beauty it is made of three distinct fabrics an inky black cotton velvet for the main body
