1960s Adele Simpson Chic Black Shift Dress designer-thierry-mugler Then the trellises came in

Then the trellises came in to make "Chinese Squares""" She used this print in her fist collection after coming back from China

I slips over the head to wear and the arms are cut long so the sides are pretty much open if you extend your arms

It is so hard to come across the really great Missoni pieces - collectors hoard them like treasures (which they are)

Fully lined in fine cream tissue silk and it closes with a hidden zipper and hidden buttons down the front

Note that is will come up when on since its a stretch fabric

1960s Adele Simpson Chic Black Shift Dress designer-thierry-mugler Then the trellises came inChic and simple this fabulous little Adele Simpson dress is that perfect throw on and go piece. Made of a black crepe, it is cut full though the body so is easy to wear. Love the long lean sleeves and pretty satin bows atop each shoulder. You could easily belt this for more shape but I do like it loose and full with the length as it is! Excellent condition. Unlined and slips on. Two fabric covered buttons at the back neck. Sleeves: 21" Shoulders: 15"
