A modern little black dress that embodies Italian elegance and timeless charm, this piece pays homage to the iconic Audrey style in the history of the little black dress. Rooted in the classic stand collar design signature from the brand’s renowned Curiellino LBD collection, it ranks among the most representative creations by Ms. Gigliola Curiel Jr., the fourth-generation heir of the brand, since the 1990s. Its sleek linear aesthetics endow the CURIEL little black dress with exceptional wearability and occasion versatility, perfectly aligning with the modern aesthetic context of the new millennium.
A universally acclaimed masterpiece of Italian tubular little black dress, this piece embodies the maison’s most iconic silhouette. TUBINO encapsulates the brand’s century-spanning minimalist romantic aesthetic, filtered through the lens of Milanese modern minimalism—chic, understated and pure.
Since the 1960s, it has stood as Milan’s most coveted dress staple. Rejecting all superfluous embellishments, it preserves the truest essence of minimalist aesthetics, cementing its status as a must-have LBD for every Milanese woman.
A trendsetting mermaid little black dress, distilled from the iconic mermaid silhouette beloved by Raffella Curiel, the brand’s third-generation heir. Minimalist yet luxuriously elegant, it features a highly recognizable S-curve and mermaid hem that embody her romantic, profoundly artistic design language.
Emerging in the late 1970s, this timeless piece has stood the test of time. It serves as a symbol of female self-expression, an enduring secret to women’s radiant authenticity, and an emblem of the brand’s minimalist romantic aesthetic.
An ageless classic little black dress transcending eras, crafted by Gigliola Curiel, the brand’s second-generation heir. Its sleek, elegant cinched-waist and flared silhouette evokes the delicate bloom of a tulip bud.
In the late 1950s, CURIEL couture gowns were essential staples for high-society ladies attending the opening galas of La Scala Opera House—among these, the TULIP silhouette reigned as the ultimate favorite. As the post-war boom unfolded, Gigliola distilled the essence of haute couture to create the first ready-to-wear TULIP LBD, which promptly took Europe by storm.
