Vintage Holly Harp "Flutter ' Dress

|
A rare and fabulous vintage find a coveted LBD by Holly Harp. Miss Harp, who incidentally was credited by the Los Angeles times as being the “doyenne of feathers and fringe” counted as her customers: Grace Jones, Janis Joplin, Bette Midler and Liza Minelli to name just a few. ” While she was known for a rich hippie look (in fact she designed the costume for Stevie Nicks for her video “If Anyone Falls.”) and counted chiffon as one of her signature fabrics, she was no stranger to refined, elegant designs that us mere mortals could carry off as well.
We find the eccentric addition of ruffled detail on the sleeves and neck to elevate this already collectible dress from predictable to outrageous! Lightweight season less wool with two hidden front kangaroo pockets slips on easily as there are no zippers just a keyhole button in the back so as not to detract from the overall silhouette of the dress. Excellent condition
