Turquoise crepe mini dress
Designed by Cardin, Paris, 1968
T.260-1983

This A-line mini dress is of stiff crepe material. It is decorated only with a relief pattern of geometric shapes at the neck and hem. It zips up at the centre back. Cardin's bold, futuristic clothes were designed for active young people. This fabric allows free movement, yet is stiff enough to maintain a clearcut shape.

Worn and given by Mrs. A. Wallrock
