1970s Pauline Trigère Red Print Strapless Dress & Cape Set
About the Item
Pauline Trigère a prominent figure in putting American designers on the map. Like many of the acclaimed French couturiers, she was an expert at tailoring and had an eye for interesting volumes. However true-to-form of the American aesthetic, Trigere designs are known for their relative simplicity and elegance through ease.
This gorgeous 1970s dress and cape set is a fine example of Trigere’s work. Done in an ombre red silk of exceptional quality with couture hand-finished details throughout, this set exudes a timeless sophistication. The ombre silk ranges from stripes of magenta to deep scarlet and features a dainty pattern of small blue and cream flowers and fleur de lis. The dress begins with a strapless ruched bodice that frames the decolletage while a high neck cape embellished with rhinestones creates an sheer overlay of long angel sleeves.

The skirt falls in small pleats from the empire waistline to a flattering midi length at the ankles, giving the dress a nice sense of movement. A thigh-high slit at the center front of the skirt adds a welcome risque note while the cape adds a layer of drama and an airy fullness to the otherwise columnar silhouette of the dress. A beautiful addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, this incredible dress and cape set is the perfect choice for a wedding, gala, or special occasion and can easily be styled with statement heels and accessories.
This numbered Pauline Trigère set is fully lined in silk and closes with a concealed zip at the back of the dress. In excellent condition save for a minor black mark on the lining at the bust that is not visible when worn, it has been professionally eco-dry cleaned and pressed. High-quality pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.

- 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
