1968 Bergdorf's Heavily Beaded Hostess Gown designer-ossie-clark Liza Minnelli

Liza Minnelli

On this one the pattern is unusual in that it is very figural - little stick figures

The jersey used is a good weight so feels solid when work but light enough to drape perfectly and really be flattering

1968 Bergdorf's Heavily Beaded Hostess Gown designer-ossie-clark Liza MinnelliThis is an absolutely stunning gown that we know was made in 1968 since it has a hand written tag dating to exactly November 26 of that year! Sadly it no longer has its original designer tag so it is a bit of a mystery as to who designed it. Bergdorf's would have been carrying all the big designers of the day back then and with the work and extensive beading this has, combined with the beautiful fabric, this definitely would have been by a major name.
