This vintage 80s Bill Blass dress really does have that Flamenco dancer’s flavor doesn’t it?  I love it and I love the mix of patterns and especially the bow on the side of the waist.  I love seeing bows on the waistline, it’s so very 80s….  Remember back in the 80s every woman had bows either in her hair or on her clothes…  I love it.  The weight of this dress is actually quite substantial believe it or not…  That’s a sign of really good fabric and when it came to Bill Blass he didn’t leave any stone unturned.  He was a master of making any woman look and feel her most glamorous…  I miss that man!  You’re going to die when I tell you this because you won’t believe it but I have always wanted a Bill Blass Lincoln Continental but since it’s environmentally unsound due to the 7 miles to the gallon it gets, I can’t justify it.  It’s a true gas hog but if I could get that baby to run on vegetable oil you know I would!!!  I’m Daniel Troppy your luxury vintage curator!
