Leonard Paris Silk Floral Floral Print Open Square-Back Maxi Dress, 1970s
About the Item
Known for their unique, feminine prints and exotic designs, Leonard Paris is a staple when it comes to comfortable yet elegant designs. In a sense, every Leonard dress is a canvas on which beautiful artwork can be displayed and worn. This early 1970s dress is done in their signature silk jersey. It features a whimsical floral design with white daisies and other flowers in shades of fuchsia, rose, yellow-orange, and coral on an oyster grey ground and features the “Leonard” signature throughout. From a round neck with a dense floral border offset by pink and white stripes, the dress is in the Directoire style characterized by its defined empire waist and column silhouette. Light gathering on the skirt adds some dimension to the smooth panels of fabric while semi-puffed sleeves add volume. On the back, a deep square neckline perfectly balances the modest front of the dress. This dress offers a sense of vintage sophistication through its classic design and artistic print making it a great option as an evening look or an upscale party dress.
