1970s Emilio Pucci Blue Silk Jersey Henley Dress

We are definitely of the 'the simpler, the better" mindset.  In attire, we love the idea of anything that we can  literally put our arms up and let drop over our body, like a three-year old getting dressed by Mommy. Ooooh, and if that thing falling over our head is a Pucci silk jersey, the ecstasy quotient kicks up quite a few notches.  This simple henley style dress is right up our alley, and as this is the season to get up and go, we think its the perfect thing to travel with.  High quality silk jersey is naturally wrinkle resistant, so you can practically roll this baby up, stash it in your tote, take it out and it's nearly ready to wear.  Designed by Emilio Pucci for Saks Fifth Avenue in a beautiful Mediterranean blue, the design is simple and chic, with a slightly dropped sleeve and 3/4 length sleeve, and a front placket with delicate gray shell buttons.  There is a 15" split at either side at the hem.  A sash has been fashioned from excess fabric, banded at the edge in a deeper ocean blue jersey.   Bust 39", waist 38", hip 39", shoulder 16",  sleeve 19",  length 48". The dress has a faint spot on the back about 7" from the hem, otherwise, its in excellent condition. $275
