1960s Silk, Velvet & Feather Mollie Parnis Dress designer-geoffrey-beene Amazing and in excellent conditionAbsolutely stunning silk net full length dress by Mollie Parnis, who one of my favorite American designers! The dress is from her companies high end, demi couture line and it shows. It is a fantastical combination if silk with a velvet pattern fused to the fabric and of course that feather detailing at the cuffs and neck! Each sleeve and the collar is finished with a a beautiful circle of glossy black feathers giving the gown a truly dramatic feel.
