Made in the USA. Montenero is credited with being the first designer whose work prompted women to wear boudoir/nightgowns to the theater and dinner parties as evening gowns because of his double exposure approach in his designs; a fashion trend more on point than ever in 2019. According to the April 23, 1975 Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, he began designing for Blanche Lingerie around that time. There is a 1978 ad for Victoria's Secret when they just had one little boutique in Palo Alto, CA featuring his work as well. His name runs in the same circles in the wonderful world of lingerie as Janet Reger, Christian Dior and Emilio Pucci. - Size M True to size - Excellent condition - Spaghetti straps - Embodied Lace on top - Elegant stitching on end of the long gown - Satin Soft - Vintage
