Gisella Heinemann VTG Embroidered Butterflies on Black Velvet Maxi Skirt SZ 8 Fantastic estate sale find maxi skirt from New York designer Gisella Heinemann. She designed for high end boutiques in New York in the 60's-70's. This particular style is rare, as most are patchwork, wrap style skirts. The photos really do not do this skirt justice-it is beautiful. The skirt is in excellent condition-the closures are a little bent out of shape. Please see the photos for condition and the measurements!
