1960s Vintage Hot Pink Silk Satin and Brown Silk Chiffon Cocktail Dress Set, Extra Small to Small
Make a style statement with this 1960s pink and brown silk two-piece cocktail dress. The hot pink silk satin top, backed with luscious orange silk, adds a touch of elegance. The dress itself is crafted from brown rayon crepe, layered with the softest brown silk chiffon for a luxurious feel. The matching orange silk satin straps beautifully complement the top. While the top can be worn independently and exudes its own charm, the dress may require some adjustments to cover the exposed seams before it can be worn without the top. Embrace the retro vibes of the 1960s with this unique and fashionable cocktail dress.
Discover a hidden gem from a local New Orleans estate. While the origins of this piece may be custom-made, its intriguing history adds to its allure. I acquired it from a woman whose mother and aunt served as esteemed buyers for Kreeger's New Orleans, a testament to their keen eye for fashion. Interestingly, they would discreetly remove the labels from their designer garments to avoid inflated cleaning charges. This intriguing anecdote suggests the possibility that this item could be a designer piece. With its exceptional craftsmanship and undeniable quality, it embodies the essence of designer fashion. Embrace this unique find that effortlessly blends history and style.
