This rare Phyllis Sues 1970's cream embroidered cotton voile maxi dress with raised dots. The dress looks like a hostess gown, but is meant to be worn as a day or evening dress and closes with orange and cream tassel ties.
This dress is sheer in the front, with sheer sleeves, but the wrap makes it opaque in the center and the back is lined. There are ties on the inside and with the orange and green cord tassels on the front.
We estimate it to fit a modern day size 6/8 but it is adjustable and can be worn by a larger size. Please review the measurements for the best fit.
BUST: 36"
WAIST: Adjustable, 28-34"
HIPS: Free
LENGTH: 58.5"
Phyllis Sues is in her mid 90's and still is active and vibrant, recently being featured in the LA times as an inspirational figure;
"She launched a business at 50 and became a trapeze enthusiast at 75. At 85, she took her first yoga lesson, got into tango dancing shortly after, and jumped out of a plane at 90."
Phyllis started her own clothing line in the 1970's and this unique piece is a beautiful example of her unique and original design talent!
