About the Item
A very pretty French couture made 1970s dress, tailored from a mousseline (French for muslin) cotton. The notable print design is a delightful floral pattern in ombré purple-to-lilac against a white background. The dress has a sweetheart neckline and a cinched waist with a coordinating fabric belt. It has framed, three-quarter length bell-sleeves and is lined with a lightweight white slip with lace trim. The dress fastens under the left arm with a hidden tonal zip and falls to below the knee or mid-calf depending on the wearer's height.
The dress is in excellent, gently worn vintage condition with no faults of any note. It is unlabelled but the work is excellent and there are many hand finished details throughout. The fabric has no stretch. This dress will fit up to a size UK 8, US 4 and sizes smaller.

Hanae Mori Lavender Angel Sleeve Dress, 1970s
By Hanae Mori
Located in Boca Raton, FL
Hanae Mori was a pioneer in the world of fashion bringing a heavy dose of authenticity to the age-old East-meets-West aesthetic. Through blending elements of Japanese sensibility, fine fabrics, and harmonious color stories, Mori’s designs mark a vital turning point in the global fashion market. From the 1970s, this Hanae Mori dress is made from a delicate silk chiffon with a stunning landscape print. Blades of grass in a neutral grey spring from the hem as irises bloom throughout. Near the neckline, the serene lavender fades to a deeper purple as a dramatic streak of aubergine, red, white, and teal sweeps across the chest and left sleeve. This dress features a classic jewel neckline and column silhouette that is contrasted by layered angel sleeves that complement the floral print. Light and stately, this dress exudes relaxation and sophistication making for a perfect hosting gown or evening dress. This dress could easily be belted and styled as a more casual day outfit.

Shoulders: 14 inches
Sleeves: 22 inches
Bust: 38 inches
Waist: 38 inches
Hips: 40 inches
Length: 52 inches
