This stunning vintage dress or coat dress was designed by Adolfo and purchased at Saks Fifth Avenue. The dress is a rich pink suede and buttons up the front with suede covered buttons. There are high slits on the sides that reach mid to upper thigh. The dress is fully lined and has slight dolman sleeves.

BUST: 38"
HIPS: 38"
LENGTH: 56"
This piece came from the estate of an Adolfo lover who owned many unique pieces by the designer. Adolfo was born in Cuba and worked for Coco Chanel in Paris before moving to New York. That's why many of his suits have such a "Chanel" look to them! His first job was making hats at Bergdorf Goodman, and Halston became his replacement when he left. He supposedly never liked making hats and did so out of 'sheer necessity'. He made hats for Jacqueline Kennedy while she was in the White House and she started wearing his clothes after she became Mrs. Onassis. Other important Adolfo clients included Connie Mellon, the Duchess of Windsor - Wallis Simpson, Betsy Bloomingdale, Babe Paley and Nancy Reagan
In order to best determine fit, measure yourself or a garment of a similar style that fits you well. Compare those measurements to those on the item description.
