Oscar de La Renta Paisley Print Palazzo Jumpsuit, 1970s
About the Item
Dominican born designer Oscar de la Renta is a legend in the realm of fashion. Launching his own brand in 1965 after working for iconic designers such as Balenciaga, de la Renta quickly established himself as the standard for class, elegance, and glamour.
From the 1970s, this elegant silk palazzo jumpsuit features a psychedelic paisley print in shades of magenta, purple, chartreuse, bright blue, green, and yellow. Gold lame flecks are interspersed throughout, adding luster to the mesmerizing display of color. The bodice begins with a sleeveless jewel neckline and features a beautifully draped attached cape overlay that brings a fullness to the otherwise columnar silhouette of the jumpsuit.
The sheer overlay has a ruffled high low-hem that reaches three quarters of the way down the arms at the front, creating the illusion of angel sleeves—and reaches nearly halfway down the length of the jumpsuit at the back for a more dramatic effect. The overlay may be worn as a cape, or can be gathered and pulled back over the shoulders for a sleeveless look.

Oscar De La Renta
Oscar de la Renta was not just a designer for the ages but a designer for women of all ages — from Hollywood starlets to silver-haired doyennes, from fashion icons (Sarah Jessica Parker) to iconic brides (Amal Alamuddin Clooney), from leading ladies of hip-hop (Nicki Minaj) to First Ladies of the United States (Jacqueline Kennedy all the way through to Michelle Obama). The secret to his broad and enduring appeal? “I have always thought that my role as a designer is to do the very best I can for a woman,” de la Renta told 1stDibs in a 2010 profile.
And for de la Renta, doing the very best meant making a woman feel beautiful, glamorous and full of confidence, whether she was walking down the red carpet or a crowded city street. "You carry the clothes, the clothes don't carry you," he went on to say in our story.
A perennial favorite on 1stDibs, Oscar de la Renta designs evolved over the years, as the large selection of items below attests, but whether bolero or ball gown, vintage or current, the pieces exude elegant sophistication and enduring originality — much like the man himself.

- Missoni Pink Gold Knit Maxi Dress Cardigan Necklace Beret Set, 1970sBy MissoniLocated in Boca Raton, FLMissoni is defined by its impressionist color stories and signature knit designs. The designs speak to the idea of simplicity with the value always being in the fine details. Done in a silky rayon crochet knit, this 1970s Missoni ensemble is made from gradients of dusty rose, blue-grey, pale yellow, and gold to create an overall warm, beachy feeling dress set. The cardigan drapes from a rounded neckline into elbow length sleeves. The undulating drape compliments the wave-like ribs in the fabric. A rather boxy silhouette, the softness of the drape and the movement of the colors give it a lighter feel. Underneath, the dress showcases a more textured, horizontal knit design that adds dimension and movement to the ensemble. The dress hugs the figure from the torso through the hips and from a dropped waistline falls into a straight maxi skirt. The fun doesn’t stop there. This ensemble also features a matching beret done in the same wavy knit style as the dress bodice and necklace made from a rope of the fabric threaded through circular carnelian beads. A picturesque sunset wrapped neatly in a matching ensemble...Category
