1980s Oscar de La Renta Saffron Kaftan Tunic Dress

Oscar de la Renta


Description

Fantastic wool Oscar de la Renta tunic - style dress! The dress hits just above the knee, has long sleeves, and features a jewel collar with a key hole like slit at the center. The dress has pockets that sit above two slits at the hem. The buttoned cuffs, long pockets, and plunging but buttoned neckline are all decorated with soutache - like embroidered braids. The embroidery brings to mind the passementerie of 17th century imperial Russian uniforms and Celtic knots, and unmistakably borrows its spiraling, entwined designs from Moroccan embroidery.
