"Chiffon Flame in the Wind by Ceil Chapman $135
Born to dance the night away - our silk chiffon in a smoldering, flaming pink. It's draped bodice, one-shouldered stole and cloud-formation skirt beautiful accompaniment to music heard or unheard. Also in black, in sizes 8 to 16."
The stole shown draped around her head is attached at one shoulder and can hang freely down the back of the gown. Interesting gathered waist extends up into the bust and down into the hips. $135 is about $1,176 in today's dollar.
Would you chose pink or black?
