Late 1970s Pierre Cardin Blue Green & Gold Striped Black Sequin Dress w High Collar

This is a gorgeous dress from the late 1970s. My client had a photo of her mother wearing this that helped to date it and it's wonderful to know the proper time period. I love that this dress really shows Cardin's range and scope as a designer. He did evening quite well and it is refreshing to have a piece that walks outside of his 'space age' work that is usually linked with his name.

The dress is cut to skim and hug the body. The upper portion through the bodice and sleeves is more fitted and then the skirt falls in a column from the hips. This just fit my dress form and I think it will fall even a bit better on a size smaller. The sleeves are long and have a vertical panel of gold sequins that runs down along the tops of them. The gold then runs across the tops of the shoulder and around the high collar at the neck. A black band of sequins sits under that and this is the band that runs and makes the underside of the sleeves. More horizontal bands run under that to past the waist. These panels change from a light blue to a bright blue to a purple then turn to green copper and gold. The rest of the skirt is done completely black sequins. Once on that dense coverage of sequin work catches the light fantastically. Excellent condition with a note to review below.

Fully lined in a black silk and closes with a back zipper. There is the occasional sequin missing through out and there is an area on the back hip of missing sequins. Some sequins show normal patina. Please see the photo after the label shot.
