VINTAGE GLAMOROUS CHETTA B PETER NOVIELLO BLOOM SAKS FIFTH AVENUE LEOPARD DRESS

A sophisticated 1980s leopard dress from Saks Fifth Avenue by Chetta B Designers Peter Noviello and Sherrie Bloom. 

I had several dresses by these designers as I loved what they designed.  I wish I still had them but whoever thought people would be selling all of the clothes they were wearing from way back then!

I lightened one of the photos so the details would show.  Love the way it was designed with the set-in waist rounded at the bottom and then soft pleats below for some interest and fullness.  Dress was photographed with the cuffs down but the ends of sleeves can be turned up so there are cuffs.  Long invisible zipper in back with a hook and eye.  Kick pleat in back.

Absolutely beautiful and perfect for an evening out, a cruise, a special evening or dinner out!

We examine each item carefully and note any imperfections, but unless an item is said to be new, please don't expect it to be perfect & even some new items have small imperfections. I will always state in the description if there are any imperfections & I never do repairs but leave them to others who are better able to do them than me as that is not my expertise.

Please remember that unless specified all items have been used and will show varying signs of use or wear. We always list the obvious imperfections to the best of our abilities. However, some slight imperfections that will not show or affect wearing or using the item may slip by or not be considered worth mentioning.

Vintage nightgowns & peignoirs may be delicate so I do not wash them in the machine. I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse & hang dripping wet in the shower.

Since these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful & I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.

The items are sold as we find them. We do not dry clean, launder, alter or repair vintage clothing and they should be cleaned or washed upon arrival. Please make your selection carefully & check the measurements as there is no return on clothing or other items.
