Very simple and elegant though, again, the tailoring is everything. So many of the styling details that made dresses from the Post-war late 1940’s so sophisticated and beautiful. Midi-length hem, augmented shoulders, long skinny sleeves. Very understated in front and the surprise accents on the back: rhinestone buttons at the shoulders and a keyhole opening at the waistline. A back walking vent keeps it easy to wear and walk gracefully.
Unlike so many dresses from the 1980’s and 1990’s, this one is not over-the-top in any way; Just perfection in its simplicity. We’ll see another LBD in the same category tomorrow. Stay tuned . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
