This beautiful 1960s gown has an almost identical fabric to an Oscar De La Renta I have had in the shop so I am very happy with the quality of it. It is shockingly light - I know it looks like it should not be with the gold - at first glance it appears to be a brocade - but the fabric is actually a really unusual textured silk organza fabric. Onto this, gold thread has been worked in to highlight the vibrant print that is custom screened onto the gown. The pattern is fantastic - purples and corals mix with pink flowers that explode across a deep blue backdrop. It is cut in a long sheath that widens as it nears the hem making it very easy to wear. I love how the design is set on an angle - this cleverly draws the eye and creates a longer. leaner silhouette. The sleeves are left unlined for a bit of different texture and weight and gold flat braiding circles the neck for a pretty finish. Excellent condition
