One corner is permanently attached to the opposite side seam and the other hooks into place

Then from the waist a train of chiffon finished with the same panels of lace swoops the floor

1960s Bleeker Street Cotton Voile Dress designer-balenciaga One corner is permanently attachedAn adorable original day dress from the 1960s made of a bright cheerful screened cotton voile. I love the plaid effect but how it has been done in an unusual and brighter colored version. Pink and red checks are crossed with yellow striping. Onto this are bold diamonds of an olive green. The top portion is simple and sweet with a super collar. The skirt is full but lies quite flat due to the flat box pleating used. This gives it volume when you move
