the cut is pretty sexy - wit a back that dips very low and a cinched in waist

† It is a stunning and beautiful gown whose style is being much copied on the runways once again

January 1971

This gives them a touch of weight so they drape fantastically

The body of the jacket is a rich black silk velvet and it closes across the high collar and then down one side with gorgeous gold and black enamel metal buttons

1970s La Mendola Print Dress designer-stephen-burrows the cut is pretty sexyI love La Mendola dresses they are genius with their print and really capture the easy, jet set life style of the bohemian chic jet set girls of the 60s and 70s. They are often in silk and quite elaborate evening pieces so its refreshing to find this chic little day dress in a easy to wear, non wrinkle, washable jersey. It is definitely a piece a girl that travelled would have thrown into her bag and knew she could just add sandals and look fabulous!
