This 100% raw silk dress is ultra modern! It was created by designer "Jon Wesley" out of California in the 1970's. The fabrication is 100% pure raw silk in varying shades of cream, beige, tan and brown. It has one button closure on a shoulder but can be slipped on and off easily without using the button. The play on fabric is genius. Jon Wesley made a simple and chic fabric have dimension by cutting different portions of the silhouette on different grains. So even though the entire dress is made from the same fabric, the striped color variation goes in different directions. The is one large and spacious patch pocket on the front. And there is a small slit in the back for extra movement and comfort. The sleeves have an interesting design detail...they have clear buttons and a button hole, allowing the wearer to have tapered sleeves or wide sleeves. The size tag inside reads "11/12"
