Stunning and rare

Egyptian motifs pervaded modern culture

The sleeves are those same thee layers and I love how each layer peeks out form under the other so you can see each and it acts like a border

It is a wonderful deep rich green and the collar is dyed a deeper green

The perfect autumn hues and wonderfully versatile as you can of course wear the top and skirt separately as well

c.1977 Pauline Trigere Silk 'Fireworks' Print Halter Dress & Cape designer-christian-lacroix Stunning and rareThis is a beautiful example of Pauline Trigere's work during this time period. The dress comes from its original owner who provided the approximate date that she purchased it. Trigere was a master at cut and often fitted garments directly on a model. She was also very hands on and the construction of the dress shows this as it is immaculately finished with many hand details. Both the dress and its matching cape are made from a fine silk crepe chiffon.
