The print would have been custom screened specifically for this dress and the fabric is an unusual silk knit that is fine and light

I am sure the deep V was originally meant to be worn at the back as was the style then but it is so well constructed you can get away with wearing it either way - if you dare to have a plunge that deep in the front that is

Unlined and slips over the head with front ties down the front

Documented 1971 Oscar de La Renta Dress designer-valentino The print would have beenA remarkable Oscar de La Renta dress from 1971 as documented in US Vogue! Made of a poly jersey it has a simple, heavily elasticized bodice like a tube top. This hugs the body until it gets to the waist and then the skirt flows out from there. The sleeves are amazing! The too are elastic until just above the elbow and then they puff out until they are cinched back in at each wrist. You can wear it on or off the shoulder. I love the little ruffle edge
