Ferdinando Sarmi was known for making clothes that had opulent fabrics and a decadent appeal. That pretty much sums up this piece! The label dates this piece to the early seventies. Dyed pink netting has a multi color pattern applied in a rainbow of pastels. That pattern was then appliqued over with gold threading and pastel colored metallic hued sequins. Under that outer layer is baby pink tissue silk. The entire thing weighs almost nothing. It snaps to close down the front so you can wear it as a evening piece or use it as a light weight full length coat over another piece. It present amazingly well and really is a strong statement piece. I love the soft palette of color mixed with the glint of the sequins! Hand finishes as one would expect. Versatile, amazing and in great condition!
