the skirt in a black silk and the top in layers of the same black silk chiffon

simple short sleeves with just a bit of pretty gathering near the cuffs and a swingy A-line skirt

There are wonderful seaming arrow detail on each pocket

1960s Peach & Gold Oscar De La Renta designer-nat-kaplan the skirt in a blackStunning 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
