## Archival D&G Dolce & Gabbana FW2002 Lavender Pincord Faux-Wrap Mini Skirt

Serve ultimate Y2K "It-Girl" energy with this authentic vintage D&G (Dolce & Gabbana) mini skirt. Documented and authenticated to the historic **Fall/Winter 2002 collection (Model SI0035 / ST095)**, this beautiful, highly saturated pastel lavender / lilac colorway perfectly captures the absolute apex of the current coquette, soft-grunge, and preppy Y2K aesthetics. 

## Design & Architectural Silhouette
Meticulously engineered under Italian direction by Dolce & Gabbana Industria S.p.A., this skirt features a flattering, fluttering A-line silhouette designed to sit low-to-mid rise on the hips for that definitive era-correct look. 

* **The Faux-Wrap Geometry:** The frontal matrix is defined by a highly sophisticated, asymmetrical faux-wrap construction. The left fabric panel sweeps across the front in a beautifully rounded marine-style arc, anchored by a dual row of prominent, white mod-style statement buttons. 
* **The Tailoring Details:** Framed by two functional, subtle horizontal utility pockets at the hips. The reverse perspective features an adorable, ultra-feminine tie-bow detail at the central waistband. The garment is secured via a discrete, hidden tonal side zipper for a completely uninterrupted line.

**Hardware & Branding Parameters:** The asymmetric closure features a majestic set of archival, three-dimensional hybrid statement buttons. Each button is meticulously engineered with a soft-square white resin base, housing a heavy silver-tone metal rim with sharp diagonal coin-edge rändelung (knurling), finished with a central high-gloss white cabochon dome.

## Textile & Material Science
Woven from an ultra-premium, tactilely rich blend of **98% Cotton and 2% Elastane**. Utilizing a hyper-fine, high-gauge **Baby-Cord (Needlecord / Pincord)** weave, the fabrication provides a beautiful matte, light-diffusing velvet texture. The strategic integration of elastane ensures a comfortable technical stretch, allowing the architectural A-line wall to contour beautifully over curves while maintaining excellent shape retention.

## Curator's Condition & Transparency Report
**Condition:** Excellent Vintage Condition
The exterior lavender baby-cord body remains flawlessly preserved, appearing virtually as new with zero sun-fading, edge-friction, pilling, or fabric crushing. The multi-layered mod statement buttons are pristine with completely intact metallic details and no resin chipping. The original hologram authenticity security sticker is fully intact on the reverse of the tag. 
*Note on Internal Label:* True to its age, the internal Ittierre paper tracking label exhibits authentic vintage distressing, fine surface crackling, and typical golden-toned storage patina. The printing, including the D&G main logo and the D&G Industria S.p.A. stamp, remains crisp and fully legible. Fully dry-cleaned and ozone-sanitized in-house.
