Velvet Woodblock Burnout GownBreezy velvet burnout gown by Bill Blass. Stunning shift style creates a long column silhouette in a patchwork like burnout print that is reminiscent of Japanese woodblock art in rich warm tones. Straight sleeves with a slight angel cut that adds a hint of floaty movement. Fully lined with back zipper and hook and eye closure. We would wear with our hair pulled into a loose topknot and finished with oversized statement earrings and a denim jacket.
