The colors are amazing

Each cuff snaps off so that you can get the dress portion dry cleaned like a regular dress and not have to have it specialty cleaned each time

The somewhat romantic innocence of these two colors is contrasted sharply by the all out impact of that deep peek a boo bodice and corseted top

Along the very hem of the dress and coat the fabric has split here and there from touching the ground

It was primarily made in solid colors or printed moss crepes in its day

1970s Silk Chiffon Metallic Trigere Dress designer-thierry-mugler The colors are amazingThis is a lovely and versatile dress with just spectacular pleat work done to it. The entire upper shoulders and down each sleeve of the exterior chiffon overlay has fine flat pleats worked into them that become a design element on their own! I love that the cut is full on the outer dress so you can wear it loose and easy or tie at at the waist to create shape. The tie belt is original and is a long rectangle so it could also be worn around the neck
