Before the 'Revenge Dress,' there was this stunner of a gown.
Before there was the "revenge dress," though there was another headline-making Princess Di gown:, so named because it was the number she wore to take a spin around the dance floor with actor John Travolta at a White House event in 1985.
The midnight-blue velvet dress, designed by Victor Edelstein, cuts a similar figure up top, with its off-the-shoulder neckline and v-shaped bust. It's certainly got more drama on the bottom, however, with an Edwardian-inspired, mermaid-ish shape that twirled perfectly during her big moment with Travolta. The lush fabric and deep color provided the perfect backdrop for her dramatic choker necklace, a brooch attached with several strands of pearls.
