Bust: 25" from side seam to side seam and continuing to bottom hem

Both pieces are unlined

They are well done and an easy thing to remove if you need the extra room

It is constructed from a gorgeous custom screened silk crepe that is one level up from chiffon as far its weight but has an opaqueness that a chiffon would not have

It is absolutely gorgeous in person - better then the photos portray

1970s John Kloss for Cira Blue Lingerie Dress designer-valentino Bust: 25" from side seamI love John Kloss pieces and this is a fabulous and sexy nylon gown by him. John Kloss was an Ossie Clark contemporary and did mainly lingerie pieces with a few draped goddess jersey gowns thrown in for good measure. He deliberately chose good weight and quality nylons that held the color well and would drape exactly as he wished. This one is simply cut and is done in a pretty robin blue. It has a crossed over, front plunge on the sleeveless bodice.
