Two Coats 37 Years Apart

 The moment I saw this.....

....it reminded me of this.  Do you see the similarity?  Or am I just crazy?

Ferre Blouse - 1990

This gorgeous image was taken by Italian photographer Giampaolo Barbieri in 1990 for Gianfranco Ferre.  I love the image, but I also love the blouse made of sheer silk organza with huge sleeves.

Want the look?  I recently listed this vintage 1990s silk organza blouse by Celia Tejada at Couture Allure.  Layer it over a camisole and wear it with jeans, a black leather mini skirt, or a long white satin evening skirt.
