Fantastic thread; the reverse of a garment is often the most interesting part.
I must have posted these in a hundred different threads I'm obsessed with the backs. (I hope we can post other pieces apart from dresses? ).

oh my, i love this thread. i'm always upset when sites don't post back details. the first dress that came to my mind is this one from galliano's last collection, but i'll be def. contributing more
This was the first dress that came to mind, from Gucci FW 2002. I've always loved how savage and yet glamorous the design of it is. It looks like it was very spontaneous.

There were a lot of stunning rear details in this collection, come to think of it.

I love this particular moment at the Calvin Klein Fall 2001 show when Angela Lindvall walks in...
And when she turns back, you discover her naked back. It almost looked like as if she wasn't wearing anything on top. It was a fantastic closing, very sensual.
