Vintage Claude Montana attr. Studded Fringe Leather Gloves designer-emma-domb The skirt is a faux

The skirt is a faux wrap style with an elastic waist and panel of silk wrapping across itself at the front

front and hem is a metal thread and is set in big angled braided curves - this really gives it a rich and regal feel

Yves takes that and then adds a classic YSL detailing through the shoulders and neck with  twist with wide flat braids set into the seams - an adornment used over and over on pieces form this time period and making it instantly identifiable as a YSL piece

The fabric is amazing - super light weight knit with a multitude of colors worked through the fabric in varying thicknesses to create the amazing design you see

A soft hand screened watercolor floral print is down over the entire dress

Vintage Claude Montana attr. Studded Fringe Leather Gloves designer-emma-domb The skirt is a fauxDramatic vintage gloves that are very well made and have high impact. I was told that they are actually Claude Montana and since they all came form the same source as the other high end gloves I have no doubt that that is what they are despite the fact that they are not labeled. They are made from fine and soft leather leather that has been hand dyed to a deep blueberry purple tone. Each has a dramatic 9" black leather fringe that hangs from the side
