Pamella Roland Silk Leopard Print Strapless Evening Gown and Shawl

America designer Pamella Roland has had a fairly recent rise to recognition in the world of fashion. Debuting her first collection only in 2002, Roland’s affinity for sleek, beautifully detailed evening gowns have graced the high-end shops of 5th Ave, as well as have been worn on a number of celebrities such as Halle Berry, and Angelina Jolie. Intriguingly made from a leopard printed silk, this evening gown features a ruched bodice that flows into a semi-fitted columnar silhouette that leads into a light train. Right at the bust, a flounce detail is added that adds a little more depth to the design. A long-sleeved bolero in the same fabric accompanies this piece. With a ruched lapel, the bolero is fully sheer creating an interesting overlay against the dress.
