Long after the Japanese with their kimono and yukata but long before designers like Rick Owens and Dries Van Noten, Bonnie Cashin was Seventh Avenue's champion of layered dressing. Based on stylish practicality, Cashin's dresses, tunics, skirts and coats are meant to be piled on in infinite ways. A smart foundation piece, or a stand alone basic, this brown wool jersey dress has a large stand-up funnel collar and is trimmed in brown leather around the base of the neck. Zips in front to the hips with a big leather zipper pull, this is slightly body conscious without being sexy and looks smashing with leggings and Clergerie platform ballet shoes. Signature stitched demilune pockets on both side seams, this has a very contemporary scuba suit vibe. Made for Sills, the bust measures up to 38", shoulder to shoulder 17", hips up to 39", oiuter sleeve 21" and length 43". Excellent condition with the exception of a small, professional woven repair by the shoulder blade in back, the size of a grain of rice. sold |
