but sometime overlooked American designer

The suit is made from a deep blue fabric that in person has a slightly brighter feel then how it photoed and is even prettier

Overall it looks to have been worn very little if at all

If you like it in the photographs you will love it in person as the camera comes no where near capturing the warm glow the dress has from the gold

The red in person is a touch more of a true red and does not have that orange tone that it has photoed with

Prettiest Early 1970s Oscar de la Renta Floral Printed Halter Dress w Frog Knots & Open Back Sold but sometime overlooked American designerThe Oscar de La Renta boutique label first appeared in 1967 which makes this one from one of the very earliest collection for this line. His boutique label is important as is marked the first ready to wear line for a Seventh Avenue designer to be launched. These early pieces have lots of hand finishes and are just stunning example of his work during these early days of his career. I suspect that this dress is from either Spring 1970 or Spring 1972.
