Vintage 1970s Norman Norell Designer Camel Stand Collar Wool Day Dress, Med
Mary Tyler Moore would have loved this classy number! Early 1970s minimalist - just throw on a silk scarf and you are ready for the newsroom, or anywhere else a serious working gal might turn up.
Norman Norell was one of the first American designers to have his own label - he started out dressing silent film stars and went on to develop a name for well-constructed, deceptively simple but striking fashions. He was particularly known for his necklines, and this dress is a great example, with a high wide band collar, set-in bishop's sleeve, patch pockets, cover buttons, and a matching, attached covered belt.
