1960s Peach & Gold Oscar De La Renta designer-nat-kaplan There are wonderful seaming arrow

There are wonderful seaming arrow detail on each pocket

Waist: 10-13" flat across the back from side seam to side seam

The cut is very caftan feeling - my mannequin is a size 4-6 and it is not pinned on her

The sleeves are a single layer of the fabric and have elastics at each wrist so have the slightest balloon effect

The waist nips in and the† skirt is set with spaced inverted pleating so you don't get any bulk around the middle but the skirt is still allowed to widen as it reaches to the floor in one beautiful sweep

1960s Peach & Gold Oscar De La Renta designer-nat-kaplan There are wonderful seaming arrowStunning sixties dress from Oscar De La Renta in a delicious feminine peach silk organza over a silk crepe interior. The organza is shot through with gold thread. Oscar loved this technique during this time period and these pieces always seem to me to have a bit of a mystical eastern allure to them. The sleeves are slightly full and are left semi sheer with no lining and each snaps to close at the wrist, creating a slight puff just above. Gold thread
