Exquisite Valentino Evening Purse jersey tank dress STORY This was the starFROM "BONNIE PARKER"'S CLOSET An adorable little Valentino number in all over black seed beads interspersed with floral embroidery and teeny tiny sequins. It is lined in gold silk satin hand stitched in I'm pretty sure and has a Valentino Garavani red label.
