A black matte jersey OMO Norma Kamali gown worn to the 55th Academy Awards, an off-the-shoulder design with fitted long sleeves with thumb holes to wear on the hands. The gown is fitted until the upper leg goes into an open skirt. The seam work pays homage to 1930s style gowns, cut on the bias with godets at the skirt creating folds. There is an OMO Norma Kamali label, no size tag present.

Raquel Welch wore this gown to the 55th Annual Academy Awards held on April 11, 1983, at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles, California. At the ceremony, Welch presented the award for "Best Film Editing" with actor Tom Selleck.
