A CUT ABOVE

"Having a dress fitted at Scaasi is just like having a tummy tuck without the pain". That was the word among socialites who could afford a made-to-order Scaasi gown. Arnold Scaasi dressed every influential woman, from first ladies to movie stars. His love for color and pattern, especially bold flowers like this dress, was always praised by critics as "exotic color alliances" and the full skirts gave women a sense of being part of a fairy tale.

The 1980's unleashed a voracious appetite for fashion and extravagance. And Scaasi was there to make the perfect gowns, combining color and volume. This exuberant dress is a perfect example of something so well made that never goes out of style.
