2004 Moschino Runway Documented Pink Silk Chiffon Novelty Print Dress
In 1983, Moschino launched Moschino Couture and found enormous success before his untimely death in 1994. He was succeeded by his long time collaborator, Rossella Jardini, who was at the helm when this pretty summer dress was created. It walked the runway as look 42/51 in Moschino’s lighthearted Spring 2004 collection. Always a brand to highlight eccentricities, the peachy-pink chiffon fabric is printed with a playful novelty print that depicts painterly figures dressed outlandishly. The dress has delicate spaghetti straps in the same fabric and is cut with a cross-over bust which forms a V-neckline. Below this, there is a waistband formed of pink grosgrain ribbon. A ruffle falls from below the ribbon down the front of this floaty gown. It fastens under the left arm with five hidden snap closures and a hidden tonal pink zip. The dress has a separate pale pink silk slip inside, which is trimmed with the same fabric that the outer dress is made from.
In excellent vintage condition with no issues of any note. Labelled a US 10, UK 14 but on the small side and the measurements suggest a better fit for sizes UK 10-12 or US 6-8. The outer chiffon dress is 100% Silk with a lining of 100% Rayon. The fabric has no stretch.

Will you set anything aside for me before I come?
We are happy to find anything you may be interested in from our website - please let us know a week in advance.
We also have an extensive offline collection. If you let us know your size, style, favourite colour to wear and perhaps your budget, we can browse through our archive in advance of your appointment.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
Clients may wish to bring modern shapewear when trying on garments from certain eras, especially the 1950s. Vintage clothing was often worn with undergarments that shaped the waist and as such is tailored for them.
We have a huge variety of slip dresses and petticoats to complete your look; many of which are also for sale.
You may also wish to bring your favourite footwear. We often find a classic pair of nude shoes work well when trying on, or a pair in gold or silver.

Many of our lower-priced pieces (under £150) are not available to buy online. Our prices range from £80 - £600 for separates. Dresses start at around £150 and go up to £2,500 for the very best antique pieces and designer vintage. Our bridalwear ranges from £300 - £3,000.
