.. Christian Dior: 1970s Chiffon dress w/ poncho

..If you are a chiffon freak like me, you can join me in a virtual AHHH as we go over this beautiful dress.
.. This is a 2 piece ensemble. The dress is silk chiffon over green silk crepe. It is styled with a tank bodice attached to a delicately pleated skirt. The dress has a hidden side zipper. The poncho is a simple rectangle of chiffon with a center opening. I love the contrast of the horizontal and vertical stripes, and the almost pladish effect when they overlap. I also love the bod color combination... very unique, very lovely.

.. I wouldn't say this is a quintessential Marc Bohan style dress. I thought it was a YSL, or perhaps a Halston, but indeed, its Dior for Saks. I guess Bohan had a bohemian side afterall.

condition: excellent, no flaws to note
