A wonderful little 1940s dress in a deep chocolate silky rayon that has little medallions scattered over it from top to bottom

This dress is from the Fall/Winter 1988 Collection and for this collection he spoofed on the work of Coco Chanel

The neck is cut in a wide scoop across the front but the back is left completely bare

The shoulders are strong but cut slim - you can see that definite Biba cut at play

Fully lined in a high grade silk and closes with hidden

1968 Giorgio Sant'Angelo Purple Applique Velvet Dress w Wood Bead Fringe designer-roberto-cavalli A wonderful little 1940s dressWhen doing the research to date this lovely dress, I found two references to pieces where Sant'Angelo used the same wood bead fringe that this dress has to finish an edging. One on a jacket photoed on Verushka for Vogue and the other edging a vest that is held in the permanent archives of the Metropolitan Museum. Both were dated to 1968. I found no other images where he used that wood fringing so am confident that this was something particular to that
