Mary Therese famously made dresses for Princess Grace Kelly, alongside the Givenchy and Christian Dior fashion houses, and today these pieces are much sought-after by collectors. This dress is tailored from the most wonderful, weighty fabric - an elaborately textured brocade detailed with swirling baroque motifs and patterned with aqua, tangerine, apple-green, mauve and candy-pink florals. The gown has a long-sleeve maxi silhouette and the curved neckline gives way to the blue buttons and hidden zip that secure the front. To make the dress easy to put on, the long sleeves have zip cuffs and the waistband can be partly opened with snap closures. There is a detachable belt in coordinating fabric with a square cloth-covered buckle. The dress is fully lined in a sheer off-white mesh and the full skirt is finished with a slip in cream satin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis dress is in excellent vintage condition. Of minor note, the leather on the back of the belt is slightly cracked due to age but this is not apparent when worn. The fabric of the dress has no stretch and there are no size or composition labels as this was couture made for one of Mary's fabulous clients. We think this is best suited to a size UK 8 or US 4 and below on account of the small waist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEASUREMENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBUST - 33 in.
