1970s Ossie Clark Black Crepe Halter Neck Dress

This is a very early 1970s dress from Ossie Clark’s couture range when he designed and collaborated with Alice Pollock of the infamous Quorum Boutique during the "swinging 60s" in London. It is labelled with his rarer and expensive mainline label. The dress is a beautifully shaped halter neck tie dress in moss crepe with a velvet collar and an empire waistline that is also embellished with silk velvet. The dress falls from the empire line with a succession of well executed darts. The dress is very flared from the silk velvet waistband and also very fitted at the torso. It is a wrap around style and front fastening with a tie that originates towards the left hand side. It will reach backwards if you are very slim but you won't be able to tie it into a bow. In superb condition for a dress of its age and no faults of any note. Best fit for up to a UK 8-10 or US 4-6.
