2003 Black Mesh High Collar Asymmetrical Top W Detachable Sleeve

Description from Resurrection Vintage

Resurrection is excited to offer a vintage Dolce & Gabbana 2003 black mesh high collar asymmetrical top with detachable sleeves. Designed with a striking combination of transparency, exposed shoulders, and sculptural proportion, this highly distinctive piece captures the provocative spirit of early-2000s Dolce & Gabbana. The sheer black mesh bodice is framed by a wide, ribbed high collar and fitted opaque waistband, creating a sharply defined contrast between transparency and structure. The asymmetrical neckline falls across one shoulder, while the long mesh sleeves can be detached at the upper arm, allowing the top to be worn with exposed shoulders or as a dramatic sleeveless silhouette. The sleeves are intentionally gathered along the arms, creating an exaggerated, ruched effect that extends dramatically beyond the hands. From the 2003 era of Dolce & Gabbana, the piece reflects the house's signature tension between sensuality and rebellious styling. The Spring/Summer 2003 collection was particularly eclectic, combining corsetry, punk-inspired lacing, straps, hardware, and body-conscious silhouettes with references ranging from Sid Vicious to ancient Rome. Contemporary examples from the same season also demonstrate Dolce & Gabbana's use of sheer black mesh and layered transparency. An exceptional Archive piece from one of Dolce & Gabbana's most recognizable periods, combining sensual transparency with an innovative, convertible construction. A rare example of the house's early-2000s approach to exaggerated proportion, exposed skin, and provocative layering. Carefully Curated by Resurrection as part of our luxury vintage collection.
