Carolyn Roehm for I Magnin Navy Crepe & White Organza Off Shoulder Dress Size 16

About the Item

This is a rare beauty that came from a Palm Springs socialite/philanthropist who specially ordered this plus size dress in size 16 at I Magnin Beverly Hills. She was a huge Carolyn Rhoem fan and had many dresses in her fashionista closet. This dress is stunning. Layers of silk organza create the off shoulder collar. The navy crepe wrap dress has snaps to close the dress. fully lined in navy silk. Sleeve has beautiful tuxedo cuff with organza button and inside snap that allows sleeve to look like a floating cloud or can be pushed down to look less full and the sleeve becomes longer. A beautiful camellia flower pin accents the end of the neckline to the body of the dress. The dress is labeled size 16 and looks very true to size. Beautifully designed, the dress has many small pleats below the organza that flow into the body of the dress. The dress has little to no use. Carolyn Roehm dresses have become very sought after and collected by many fashionistas. She made many gorgeous, museum worthy dresses during her fashion career. Many other dresses in this once in a blue moon closet were never worn. Please see other plus size 16 and 18 designer dresses from this closet on separate listings. Carolyn Roehm bio: Style icon and lifestyle maven Carolyne Roehm has been part of American design culture for over four decades, with a career spanning the fashion, gardening, entertaining, publishing and decorative arts worlds. Finding a mentor in Oscar de la Renta, Carolyne worked alongside the couture great for 10 years before launching her own fashion house in 1985. A discerning eye and passion for beauty lead her into the world of flowers, where her books are often referred to as the best in their field. Subsequent entertaining and interiors titles cemented her position as one of America’s lifestyle experts. A former President of the Council of Fashion Designers of America, with appearances in both the Who’s Who of Women in America and the International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame, honored by Manolo Blahnik with a shoe in her name, in a fitting tribute design legend Bill Blass labeled Carolyne, “The ultimate tastemaker.”
