Loving this outfit!
Gorgeous tighta/panty hose.
Incredible early piece from Janice Wainwright's Poland Street label. So early, in fact, it bears the incredibly rare satin version of the label which would later always be woven. Although famed for her embroidery later on, and her use of vividly printed fabrics early in her career, Janice was a master of any fabric and this transitional example of her work is a continuation of the style she had developed under the Simon Massey label....but with hints of what genius was yet to come. Made from a gorgeous silver lurex, placed over an orange lining with dramatic effect, it's also a little bit saucy where the lining stops between the front and back panels - giving a glimpse of flesh under the gathered lurex. I love the draped and puffed sleeves, and the ruching down the front and back panels in the top section. All in all, it's a stunning dress and a superb example from a very collectable designer!
