MISSONI Dress Size S-M TRUE VINTAGE Wave Knit Dress Multicolor Stripe Midi Dress

  

MISSONI Dress Size S-M VINTAGE Wave Knit Dress Multicolor Stripe Midi Dress. Like the 1967 Fashion show with portions that are sheer!

Knock them off their seats! I did a ton of research on this one!

This is a knit dress so there is stretch! Additionally I compares it to other similar items. I found a similar dress on a competitors website and the material is wool, alpaca, polyimade, & viscose. MISSONI has a RICH history.

1931 Missoni opened a small knitwear shop in Gallarate, Italy, paving the way for what would become an iconic style of colorful chevron knit. Missoni began with a tracksuit, which featured zippers down the legs because, as Rosita recalls it, Tai was too lazy to take off his shoes when putting them on. The couple's fashion really took off, though, once they discovered the Raschel knitting machine on a trip to a shawl factory. The machine enabled the Missonis to knit multi colors in a zigzag pattern, a motif that would go on to become synonymous with the Missoni brand across everything from its alluring vintage day dresses and sweaters to its purses, seating and rugs. Missoni held its first fashion show in Florence in 1967 and caused a bit of a sensation when the models' Lurex dresses proved translucent under the lights at the Pitti Palace.

Scandal aside, the show went down in history as a hit, and the Missonis soon made their debut in the United States with the help of legendary fashion editor Diana Vreeland, who gave the variegated Missoni stripe the Vogue seal of approval, saying, Who says a rainbow has seven colors? It was also Vreeland who reportedly introduced the Missonis to Neiman Marcus president Stanley Marcus, effectively shepherding the brand to the American market. Missoni's many-shaded rainbow would soon become an emblem of the 1970s fashion scene, earning the brand a permanent place in the fashion canon. In 1973, the New York Times proclaimed: Missoni's weaved garments have ended up universal materialistic trifles, as Vuitton sacks and Gucci shoes. The brand branched into the home market in 1983, with Rosita overseeing this new venture. Which included furniture, textiles and accessories. Daughter Angela succeeded her mother at the helm of the brand, where she still serves as president and creative director today; her brother Luca is CEO, while her daughter Margherita is creative director of offshoot M Missoni.
