About the Item

Diane Freis began her fashion career in the early 1970s and rose to popularity by the 1980s. Her comfortable and easy-to-wear, boho designs were extremely well received by her mostly Californian clientele. Freis’ designs are praised for being light and low-maintenance, perfect for the woman on-the-go. This circa 1992 dress is done in a vivacious printed georgette. A large floral motif of violet and crimson flowers interspersed by flourishes of green float across a royal blue ground. Beads in matching colors have been stitched on adding both dimension and texture to the fabric. The dress begins with a plunging V-neck surplice bodice that is lightly gathered into the shirred waist. From there, the skirt drapes to a gorgeous ankle-length lettuce hem. Three-quarter puff sleeves complete this design. This Freis dress is lively and effortless that is the perfect addition to enhance a spring or summer wardrobe. Size estimate: S/M Measurements: Shoulders: 15 inches Sleeves: 17 inches Bust: up to 36 inches Waist: 24-32 inches Hips: up to 40 inches Length: 55 inches At the neckline there are two blue tassels with red beads that can be styled as desired. Additionally, this dress comes with a matching scarf. The dress is lined in a sheer chiffon. The elastic shirred waist provides excellent stretch allowing this dress to simply slip on for wear. In excellent condition, this dress has been professionally eco dry cleaned and pressed. High-quality vintage 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.

1950s Hattie Carnegie Silk Floral Print Watercolor Nipped Waist Dress
By Hattie Carnegie
Located in Boca Raton, FL
From the early 1950s comes this heavenly silk dress by Hattie Carnegie. Its nipped-waist silhouette is the perfect canvas for the gorgeous watercolor print that unfolds upon it: a blanket of pretty peonies in shades of pink, gray, white, lavender and, of course, Carnegie blue. “My clothes are built to show off the woman who wears them,” the American designer once said. “I like them to be simple—complicated and simple—to move well, to move with the times and a little ahead of them.” Still stunning today, this vintage treasure is a reflection of her philosophy—and a ladylike option for so many occasions, from a springtime luncheon to a summertime wedding or garden party. Measurements Size estimate: XS/S Bust: 32 inches Waist: 24 inches Hips: 34 inches Length: 42 inches This vintage Hattie Carnegie dress...
