1960s Norman Norell Lime Wool Twill Dress

lime rickey Norman Norell is the ultimate New York designer. Back in the days when each city had its own style (much more so than now), the most sophisticated American women lived in New York - which is still true. Tony addresses like Park Avenue and Sutton Place were the place to watch for stylish women and icons chose the smart designs of men like Norell. A vivid lime green wool twill dress with very simple lines. Stand up band collar and slant pockets over each hip bone, it is lined in the most exquisite lime green silk charmeuse. As is true with all vintage Norell, the construction is meticulously flawless. We love this with baby blue Rene Caovilla slingbacks and a clutch made of mother of pearl disks. Bust measures 40", shoulder to shoulder 16", outer sleeve 21", hips 40" and length 39". Flawless, unworn condition with original hangtags - the hem is still bound and unfinished. sold
