1970s Royal Blue Silk Jersey Loris Azzaro Evening Gown

How absolutely divine is this royal blue silk jersey gown from French designer Loris Azzaro?!

The color is even more stunning in real life, and the way the material swirls around your body when you wear it is simply magical. You can't help but to feel like nobility.

See how it fits on the ever so glamorous 1970s actress/model, Elsa Schiaparelli's granddaughter, Marisa Berenson! (Photo 10). 

This gown is machine-stitched with hand-sewn finishes. (Photo 6). It zips up the back, closes with a small hook and eye, and the straps are attached by tiny snaps so that they can be worn straight or crisscrossed.

It's in excellent condition. The only real issue is a very small, hard-to-notice snag on the front left side of the bust. (Photo 7).

As is typical with '70s Azzaro pieces, there's no size label. I'd say it leans towards a larger S / smaller M. Check out the measurements below as well as the measurements I've drawn out on photo 9 for visual clarity.

Since the silk jersey has some stretch to it, the following measurements are those of the safest, most comfortable maximum limit. And as always, don't hesitate if you have any questions!

Bust : hard to say exactly. But each side measures 8 inches, so it can fit larger bust sizes, as long as the underbust fits.

Underbust/Waist : up to 29 in

Hips : up to 40 in

Length : 56 in (can be shortened a bit by crisscrossing the straps as in photo 5)
