1970s Adolfo One Shoulder Top & Skirt designer-alexander-mcqueen The photos do not convey

The photos do not convey the fluidity of the mesh - holding this bag is an experience in itself - the metal almost feels alive under the hand

It was never worn and still has its original Jil Sander hang tag

Wide sleeves are cuffed and all the edges are finished with a double stitch to create a wide flat edge

There are small darkened areas here and there on the lace detailing on the sleeves that do not deter on any way

1970s Adolfo One Shoulder Top & Skirt designer-alexander-mcqueen The photos do not conveyA really spectacular set by Adolfo. This is a once in a lifetime, glorious piece constructed of black silk chiffon that has an amazing large crossed pattern worked through the silk in a fluid, black lame look threading. It is almost weightless and yet constructed so that it drapes on the body perfectly. The skirt is to the floor and has yards and yards of fabric in it. Two layers of chiffon are under the top layer s it gives it a very floating effect
