Vintage 1980s David Hayes Silk Tiered Dress | S
Vintage 1980s David Hayes Silk Tiered Dress | S
This red silk dress was made in the 1980s by iconic American designer David Hayes. David Hayes was a Los Angeles designer very active during the 80s and 90s who famously rebelled against the fashion status quo of his era, celebrating women and their inherent femininity. At the same time, he insisted on using old-fashion, labor-intensive tailoring techniques, and never cut corners, using expensive trims and linings. This dress is pure 1980s-fun, but it draws on the silhouettes of the 1920s, with the tiered skirt, drop waist, V-neck, and button front. The fabric is a gorgeous lipstick-read silk crêpe de chine, with the buttons throughout covered in the same fabric. It is fully lined in silk satin, a true testament to the luxury David Hayes created. Features slight shoulder pads, and elegant long-sleeves with fabric-covered buttons at cuff. There is a hidden zipper/single button closure in the back.
Great vintage condition. There is a small, not noticeable marking on the dress's upper front. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email shop@verybreezy.com for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.
