1970s La Mendola Beautifully Printed Silk Jersey Dress designer-mary-mcfadden I have dated it to

I have dated it to the mid seventies - you can see a photo of a very pregnant Vicky with Woody Allen in a dress with a similar fabric

Screened with one of his iconic floral prints screened onto a scarf weight silk

Really wild and showstopping piece

1970s La Mendola Beautifully Printed Silk Jersey Dress designer-mary-mcfadden I have dated it toThe La Mendola label is highly collectible and sought after when the duo behind the label where designing in Rome it was girls like Elizabeth Taylor and Rita Hayworth that were buying and even wait listing for pieces as they were produced.

The design is beautifully vibrant and bright
