Vintage Red Navy Creme Striped Silk Halter Gown Feather Shawl, 1970s

About the Item

This vintage 1970s gown ensemble is a true treasure. Custom made from a satin striped silk, this dress boasts a simple design and high-quality craftsmanship. The fabric is designed with diamonds made up of red and midnight blue stripes that play off of the plaid satin pattern in the fabric weave creating for a cool optical effect. The halter style bodice has been masterfully pieced with one side done fully in the blue stripes and the other in the red matching perfectly at the centre front seam. The skirt of the dress falls with a subtle drape finishing with a decent sweep. Additionally, the dress comes with a matching shawl that is finished on both ends with a bouquet of red and white ostrich feathers that add a layer of texture to the smooth dress. Full of flirty vintage charm, this one-of-a-kind ensemble is a perfect wardrobe addition. Size estimate: S/M Bust: 34-36 inches Waist: 28-29 inches Hips: 36 inches Length: 63 inches Shawl: width: 23 inches Length: 80 inches This dress is fully lined and closes with a concealed zip.

  • Dries Van Noten Pink Crepe Feather Trim Tunic Top Runway F/W 2013
    By Dries van Noten
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    A member of the iconic Antwerp Six collective, Dries van Noten’s vision of luxury ready-to-wear fashion is intertwined with themes of nature and textile innovation that often result in captivating or even poetic ensembles that reshape notions of the modern. Van Noten’s Fall 2013 collection spun a web of masculine and feminine silhouettes complimented by Art Nouveau motifs mixed with furs and feathers. This tunic is done in silk with a simple scoop neckline transition to dropped shoulders that form a mock cap sleeve. The tunic falls straight from the shoulders to hip level and explodes into a ring of pink ostrich feathers...

  • Missoni Pink Gold Knit Maxi Dress Cardigan Necklace Beret Set, 1970s
    By Missoni
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    Missoni 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...
