Rare Helmut Lang autumn/winter 1990 collection twisted dress (the year is indicated on the label). Amazing work with nylon - two layers of nylon create an airy look, with the fabric folded towards the waist at the front. Made in Italy. It's possible the dress was on runway (early collections from the designer's shows are difficult to find in full format; we only found a few images of this collection).
The collection is notable for introducing many signatures that later became synonymous with 1990s minimalism: industrial fabrics, vinyl shine, harness-like straps, feather trims, and severe narrow tailoring. Fashion historians often point to these early Paris collections as foundational to the decade’s stripped-back aesthetic
