1960s Leonard Black Knit Maxi Dress with Green Floral Contrast MRS Couture

Stunning black maxi dress by Leonard!
This full length dress has a slight flare below the waist with a beautifully inset contrast that follows the hem all the way up to the bodice. It features a wide scooped neckline and the same green floral contrast outlines the silhouette. There is an adjustable belt at the waist that breaks up more of black space creating a pretty juxtaposition. Zipper closure center back.

Fun Fact: In 1954 Leonard was simply a textile company but in 1958 they invited Daniel Tribouillard to start a new fashion line venture. Daniel proved to be an indispensable asset to the firm and in 1960 invented a new method that allowed knits to be continuously printed! This method is still used today!
