Documented Pierre Cardin Demi-Couture Hostess Dress and Skinny Pants - XS, 1970

Angular, sexy and powerful from top to bottom, this satin suit is built of two pieces that can be worn together, as separates, or with our complementary Milly Autumn Roses suit listed under separate cover. With a sly nod to Gaultier’s fierce conical bodices and a skintight ruched pencil skirt that cups the derrière, the set has an edgy femininity that demands attention. The lining of each piece matches the exterior of the other, creating a sophisticated, intentional mismatch. Mismatched skirt and jacket set with complementary lining. Chocolate satin jacket features gently conical bust, surplice bracelet sleeves and 2” self ruffle around all edges. Clutch silhouette with no closures; fully lined in petrol silk to match skirt. Skirt features front and back 7” wide ruched panels from waist to hem for extra narrow fit; left side notch at knee for ease of walking.

With its gold, purple and petrol roses this suit is the ideal complement to Fall’s changing leaves; better still, its puff sleeve jacket is a mirror image of Dior’s 2023 Fitted Jacket with Puff Sleeves. The frog closures and front and back ruched skirt add an Asian flavor reminiscent of a traditional Quipao dress. Short sleeve pencil suit with puff sleeve jacket and knee length skirt.
