DESCRIPTION
70s Malcolm Starr for Rizkallah red maxi sweater dress with paillettes and pronged rhinestones. This was sold in the Bramson department store in Chicago, they briefly had a store in Palm Beach as well.
In a flatback rib, this has a slight aline to the skirt that is not apparent in the pics. The fabric is acrylic with a wool look, a great alternative to those that cannot tolerate any itchiness. This has been handwashed with a final hair conditioner rinse - a great trick for wools and acrylics to make them super soft.
~2" mock collar
