Wonderful late 70’s dress featuring the iconic geometric forms Bessi was best known for! The dress falls below the knee, has long sleeves, a jewel neckline, and a faux wrap skirt with free panel. The neckline, cuffs, hem, and waist of the dress are highlighted by a narrow ribbon - like print of stacked geometric flowers. The shoulders feature a slight structured puff to them, forseeing the large accent shoulders of the 1980s. Print includes the subtle but scintillating "Bessi" signature.
Averardo Bessi has been producing colorful, playful, and intricate textile designs since 1950. Bessi' first collection was presented to the world in 1968, quickly leading the designer to become an internationally known force.
