Extremely well made

This wonderful 1950s printed circle skirt has a bright and unusual owl design that runs over its surface complete with a starry sky and forest

I am almost certain that this is an unlabeled Oscar de la Renta boutique dress

1981 Yves Saint Laurent Embroidered Silk Taffeta Full Maxi Skirt designer-biba Extremely well madeIn an amazing testament to construction and pure joy of form, this extravagant full length skirt by Yves Saint Laurent is perfection.
