1960's Pucci Nighty - Formfit Rogers
"Emilio Pucci for Formfit Rogers, made in Italy, 100% nylon" label. This is really a gorgeous gorgeous print! And the gown is an adorable halter neck style, fitted and slinky. The fabric is a nylon knit, it is fairly light-weight and sheer. The neckline, waist and hem are all trimmed in contrasting print, small floral on green. The body of the gown is done in matching larger floral prints in cool, watery shades of blue and green with just the right amount of yellow and berry red. Many colors, many shapes. Great print. Cute enough to wear a slip under and wear to your pool party, or hem it up and make a mini dress with a matching handbag. The nighty fastens at one shoulder with snaps, and also at one bodice side with a snap placket.
