.. This is such a charming little dress by Fath. Its made from wonderful wool crepe, the collar and "bow" accent are made from rich silk faille.

.. The dress is long and lean, with deep pleats at the hips, and one in the back. The shoulderpads add to the drama and really make the wearer appear statuesque. Its the kind of dress that will get noticed, without appearing too over the top. Being that this dress is at least 60 years old, the look is quite modern and avant garde. The bodice detail is the kind of look designers like Gauliter and Margiella would come up with.
