• Documented to the 1978 collection
• The dress was made under the creative direction of Roy Halston.
• In 2016 a red version was worn by Kate Moss at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival.
• Martha Hunt wore the twin of this dress from us to Cannes in 2019 and she landed on several Best Dressed lists. 
  
• These were issued on a variety of colours and this one is a wonderful and quite rare ivory version.
• The dress is suspended by one hook at the shoulder. 
• The inner part of the dress has a high slit cut into the side that travels up the side of the leg opposite to the draped side. 
• Attached to that inner sheath lies a draped panel of jersey that is suspended from the shoulder. It falls from that shoulder down and over the front and the back of the dress. 
• The dress slips on to wear and has a hook at the top of the shoulder to hold it in place.
• These will fit a variety of sizes since they are not cut to be super fitted and the jersey does have some stretch.
• There is no size tag present and I have put the comfortable range of measurements when laying flat below.
• I see a very slight mark on the back near the edge otherwise excellent condition.
