1970s Stephen Burrows Red Chiffon Evening Pantsuit Ensemble Dress Alternative

About the Item
This red chiffon evening ensemble was designed by Stephen Burrows in the 1970's. This evening dress alternative outfit includes a red chiffon tunic with a tiered hemline that ties at the neck, and a pair of high waisted flowing chiffon pants with the same tiered hemline. This outfit can be worn together or each piece can be worn in so many ways as separates.
Stephen Burrows was one of the designers chosen for the now called "Battle of Versailles," 1973 fashion show. The show was organized to help raise money to renovate the palace at Versailles. The show was designed to put five French design houses (Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Emanuel Ungaro, Pierre Cardin and Christian Dior) up against their American counterparts (Halston, Oscar de la Renta, Bill Blass, Stephen Burrows and Anne Klein). This event is often credited with putting American fashion on the international map. Stephen Burrows is known for his flowing, chiffon fabrics and his use of color. His pieces at the battle of Versailles were breathtaking, and if you haven't read the book, or seen the movie, you might find them as fascinating as we did!
We estimate this outfit to fit a modern day size 6/8 but always encourage our clients to use the measurements as a guide for the best fit!

- Vintage 1950's Pierre Balmain Couture Creme Beaded Embroidered Silk Bridal GownBy Pierre Balmain Haute CoutureLocated in Beverly Hills, CABreathtaking mid-1950's creme silk satin ballgown attributed to Pierre Balmain. This iconic designer created a very sculptural quality which was always allied with a ladylike essence. His garments have a body and a shape of their own. This absolutely stunning French couture dress is fashioned from the most luxurious materials and of the finest craftsmanship, resembling Pierre Balmain's "Jolie Madame" collection. In 1947 he opened a boutique on the ground floor of his couture house, which he named "Jolie Madame". These pieces were not out-sourced nor factory mass produced. They were made a few at a time, in the designer's own workroom, exactly as if a client had ordered multiple duplicates of a couture design with Balmain's extraordinary workmanship still readily apparent. The bodice is a seductive fully-boned twisted knot shelf-bust with gorgeous pleating. Sumptuous embroidery and beadwork add sensational 3-dimensional richness to the silhouette. The hourglass drop-waist full skirt construction finished this ballgown with the perfect ethereal vibe. I totally see this satin couture show-stopper gliding down the red carpet. Measurements Bust:33-34 inches Waist:25 inches Hips: Free Sweep Total Length:60 inches This couture ballgown...Category
