Rudi Gernreich for Harmon Knitwear Dress with Attached Trompe l' Oeil Sweater

About the Item
Rudi Gernreich designed this dress for Harmon Knitwear in the 1960's and it is a very modern and clever design. The tank dress is made from a wide vertical striped fabric and it slips on over your head. There are snaps on the left shoulder of the dress and the fabric has some stretch. The humor is provided by the appearance of a narrow vertical striped cardigan casually tied over the shoulders.
This is strictly to fool the eye, the sweater is a decorative element of the dress.
It is attached at the back and shoulders. This rare example from Rudi Gernreich is in excellent condition.

- Vintage 1975 Madame Grès Haute Couture Rare Documented Silk-Jersey Cut Out GownBy Madame GresLocated in Beverly Hills, CAGorgeous and incredibility rare Madame Grès haute couture heavily pleated silk-jersey gown dating back to her 1975 Autumn-Winter collection. Madame Grès felt that the true job of the couturier was not to create a name for one's self, as many designers do, but to pay rigorous attention to the clothing. This stunning documented draped mocha brown gown has so much detail, you can tell it was made with loving devotion. That color pop of beige really brings this dress to a new level. The seductive bodice has a low-cut halter style neckline with scrolling heavily pleated bands. My favorite design detail is the flirty cut-outs around the bodice which add so much sex appeal and interest. Flattering asymmetric hem columnar skirt with matching pleated waist belt. Grès had an extraordinarily long career. Through each decade, which encompassed huge changes in fashion, her work remained consistent and timeless. Any one of her elegant gowns...Category
