Angelo Tarlazzi started his career at the roman couture house, Carosa where he spent 4 years before joining the Jean Patou atelier in 1965 as an assistant. He left for a short stint as a freelancer and then came back Patou to head the couture division in 1972. He remained there till 1977. He launched his own label that same year and continued with that until 1998. While designing his own label he also headed the Guy Laroche couture division from 1989 1993 and then was also Carven's artistic director from 1995 1998. This dress is from the 1990 1991 time period and while we did not find this exact version on the runway, I have included a few shots of similar pieces so you can get an idea of how it will look like on the body. The dress form does not do this dress justice at all because it needs a body under it to fill out the curves. It is very fitted and the entire dress is gathered all through the body and the sleeves. That gathering lets you adjust the length so that you can wear it from a micro mini length to a regular mini length with a simple pulling up or pulling down of the hem. The fabric is a stretch jersey that mixes silk with a touch of spandex to feel incredible on the body. Large gold buttons run down the front and are tightly spaced together. Each is a double stacked row of gold metal with a large glass rhinestone at its centre. The sleeves are long and are gathered along their inside edge so that they are gathered all the way up the arm. The front plunges into a wide V and because of the stretch of the fabric you can wear the dress on or off the shoulder. I have shown it both ways, and you could wear this very low on the shoulders as well. It is an incredible little dress. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. Excellent condition. Fully lined in a stretch lingerie jersey through the body and closes with a hidden set zipper at the side. The fabric has a remarkable amount of stretch so I have put the comfortable range of measurements. You might be able to get a little more if needed. Sleeves: approx 27" and each upper arm or stretched to a approx 10 14" around Shoulders: no defined scene Bust: 14 19 " flat across from side seam to side seam Waist: 11 15" flat across from side seam to side seam Hips: 13 19" flat across from side seam to side seam Total length: approx 32" from top of shoulder to hem and can be shortened to wherever you wish Modern Sizing Equivalent: XXS MED Item# DD4997 Reference Photos: (1) Fall 1990 Angelo Tarlazzi Runway.
