Hello perfect summer dress. I love how the side seam under the arm angles forward at the waist for a slimming shape and convenient on-seam pockets. Made from taffeta wool! According to Dior, Cristobal Balenciaga was “the master of us all.”

@JetSetSewing Balenciaga and Givenchy were absolutely the masters of geometry and construction. Glorious.

@JetSetSewing Taffeta wool?! That’s a new term for me. And for summer, too. Regardless, what a beautifully designed piece.
