there is the added detail of a waist stay that sits just under the bust to give support and to ensure the garment sits properly when worn The garment is very high quality and in excellent condition

I have dated this as being from the 1962 collection as the lines are almost identical to the dress that Audrey Hepburn was photographed in while standing between Jack Lemmon and William Holden in the boat “Bateau Mouche” on the Seine after a press conference for the publicity of her movie “Paris When It Sizzles”

1990s Comme des Garcons Knit Shawl Poncho Jacket designer-emanuel-ungaro Really terrific and versatile pieceThis is a fabulous and versatile piece by cult label Comme des Garcon. It is cut almost as if it was turned upside down before the label was placed into it to denote which side should go up. This "upside down" feel results in a huge collar that drapes down as you see here or could be worn more up and around the shoulders and head for a more avant garde feel. I suspect that this is a piece that you could wear almost anyway that you could think up on
