1970s Blue and Red Rose Print Silk Jersey Dress
About the Item
This late 1970s to early 1980s French couture silk jersey maxi dress has a beautiful blue and red rose print design against a darker blue background. It has a high, round neckline and is cut in a simple, shift-like shape to the ankles. It has long sleeves which are fitted through the arm all the way down to the cuff, and the material has a lovely soft, slightly stretchy feel. The dress fastens down the back with the original zipper. It would be perfect dressed up with heels for a special occasion and would work equally well when worn more casually.
The dress is in excellent vintage condition with no faults or stains to note. It looks unworn and was part of a large haul of clothing we acquired from the estate of a Monaco resident and French Riviera socialite. Although this dress is unlabelled, many items were designer pieces by Givenchy and Yves Saint Laurent. This was certainly made by a top-tier atelier although not a haute couture peice. Due to the relaxed nature of the fit, it would best fit up to a size 12-14 UK, or 8-10 US.

- 1970s Yves Saint Laurent Rich Purple Taffeta Ruffle Skirt SetBy Yves Saint LaurentLocated in London, GBWell documented, this is an absolutely classic and desirable piece of Yves Saint Laurent evening wear dating from 1978-1983. The designer revisited this look several times during the 70s and 80s and we feel that this is quite possibly an early 80s piece. In a beautiful deep purple hue of silk taffeta, this set has some lavish design details and very generous amounts of fabric in the ruffle collar and deep cuffs. The floor length skirt is full and has an unusual asymmetric ruffle flounce so that no length is equal, juxtaposing the formal blouse element. These ensembles always look great tucked in or accompanied by an original YSL rope...Category
