1950s Pink Silk Chiffon Ceil Chapman designer-pierre-cardin The sleeves mirror the print

The sleeves mirror the print at the hem and have a wonderful poofed effect with a ruffle at each cuff to mirror the neckline

Absolutely one of the best Yves Saint Laurent pieces ever

Those ties go almost to the waist so if you wear a nude underpinning you will create the illusion of being completely bare underneath

This in no way detracts or deters form the value

1950s Pink Silk Chiffon Ceil Chapman designer-pierre-cardin The sleeves mirror the printBeautiful silk printed chiffon cocktail dress from the infamous Ceil Chapman. A soft hand screened watercolor floral print is down over the entire dress. The exterior silk is a feather light chiffon and this is placed over a soft pink silk interior. The bodice is hand draped and stitched into place you can clearly see the hand work form the other side. The neck dips in a V, as does the back, and both sides are pleated as only Ceil Chapman dresses are!
