More Information

Dress is double-layered with matching patterned interior lining (semi-sheer when worn). Pairs with large, long stole / scarf of matching fabric (can be styled with or without stole as desired). Rare dress as seen on the runway on Audrey Marnay as part of Bill Blass's final collection for the label before retirement. Runway Sample acquired directly from the Bill Blass Archive. An exceptionally rare collector's offering, accompanied by the designer's original sketch of the dress on vellum, along with fabric sample. In very good vintage condition with pin-sized hole at back skirting and very faint spot near hole, and slight fraying at right side strap; both are very faintly visible when worn upon close inspection.
