Evening dress, Christian Lacroix, France, 1987

It still counts as fashion history, ok? 39 years ago is definitely history 😄
Anyway, I love this. Big hat, big skirt, big embroidery. You can't go wrong.

Museum photo of a short gray silk dress with black embroidered skirt, white ruffled bodice, and black satin straps tied in bows at the top. The skirt is extremely full and seemed to have layers of petticoats. The waistline is just below the bust, and is accentuated by a light green silk belt, with a chunky flat textured buckle in the same colour. It is worn with an oversized straw hat with square crown and very wide brim, which has a pink silk rose and green petals at the front.
