Vintage 1960s cocktail dress of exquisite quality from the collaboration of Teal Traina and Malcolm Starr. Jet black scooter-style shift with princess seams front and back opening to inverted pleats with bow detail. Additional bows top the double shoulder straps. Note how the hidden zipper is concealed with the lefthand princess seam at back. Fully lined. Absolutely gorgeous. Union made in the U.S.A. From the estate of the impeccably dressed Dorothy E.
