Lot Essay

Although this gown is labelled 'Serengeti Sunset', it did not appear as part of the main runway collection. Scott wrote of this collection, 'I was so taken by the vast open skies of the Serengeti and the ever-changing colours of the African sunset'.
Gretchen Mol wore it to attend the 18th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards at The Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on 29 January 2012.

'All dresses I wore that were designed by L’Wren mark the best times I’ve had on red carpets, which are by their nature very unnatural events. Something about the way she designed and created silhouettes made me feel strong and confident and unflappable. I so miss L’Wren’s special and unique voice.' - Gretchen Mol
