Bonnie Cashin ca. 1970 Wool + Leather Dress
Vintage, circa 1970 Bonnie Cashin for Sills jersey wool + leather dress. ICONIC piece! Deep marine blue wool shift is trimmed in leather and features belled sleeves and keyhole neckline complete with Cashin's signature brass turnlock closures. Includes original leather sash. Note the incredible brass belt loops! And like all the best dresses, this dress has POCKETS!
Very good + to excellent vintage condition. There is very very light fuzz/pilling here and there on the dress. We also found 2 teeeeny moth nibbles on the front of the left sleeve near the cuff and a teeeeny stain on the back of the sleeve. We had to lighten both photos significantly to be able to see the wear. Both pictured.
