Pleated Chiffon Cocktail Dress
1976
Simple, simple, simple - but so elegant! The light, delicate chiffon pleats of this dress float over the body, revealing and hiding the body shape at the same time. The accordion pleats do not lie flat against the body, but stand away from it. The layer underneath is a body clinging knit which is just visible under the sheer chiffon. This dress would float gracefully away from the body as the wearer walked.
Gift of Mrs. Ethel Scull
