1960s Wallis Smock Finish Tented Loose & Easy Summer Dress designer-louis-feraud This used much more fabric

This used much more fabric then a conventional dress so even though it has no label that is a great clue that it is a potential designer piece

It may be the single most recognizable coat they have produced

has been hand dyed to that extraordinary color

I love how they are placed in rows of inverted V's too - this draws the eye up and in making a girl looks taller

1960s Wallis Smock Finish Tented Loose & Easy Summer Dress designer-louis-feraud This used much more fabricThis dress is from the British retailer Wallis who has been around since 1923. In the 1950s they started carrying copies of Paris originals, done with permission through licensing agreements with a select group of designers. By the 1960s, the era from which this dress is from, they had shifted to trying to reach a younger audience and carried s mix of young British Designers and their own designs. This dress is darling with its loose and easy cut
