CHLOE COLOR BLOCK

We could hear Project Runway's Tim Gunn's voice in the background saying: "Designers, this is an example of a great day dress" when we received this vintage Chloe today. This is truly an example of a great day dress -- delicious crepe silk with chic wide-arm sleeves, a round neck, sashed waist, and color blocked in yellow, turquoise and black. The top of the dress has a few gathers where the yellow and black meet and the back has four faithful buttons for a bit of a peak-a-boo detail. Another reminder that Karl Lagerfeld is one of the greatest living Createurs in fashion, his design for Chloe from the 1980s is still streamlined and moderne after over 20 years.
