1980s Bruce Oldfield Polka Dot Silk Chiffon Cocktail Dress

A stunning dress from British Designer Bruce Oldfield, designer to many icons and best known for dressing Princess Diana in his couture creations. This coral red and beige polka dot silk chiffon dress is spectacular! I love the easy relaxed fit of the bodice and how it flows into the hand ruched super slimming waistline which starts directly under the bust line and comes down over the hips.

The full bias cut skirt begins below the hips, the drape is beautiful and the fabric just flows with your every move. Closes in the back with a 15 inch zipper. Built in spaghetti strap slip /lining.
