History of the style

The author of a new trend in tailoring is an American designer Diana von Furstenberg. A cozy dress of almost home style, resembling a bathrobe and tied with a soft textile belt, has become one of the most popular in the world.

Important! Diana did not set herself the goal of creating high-end masterpieces accessible only to the elite. Her task is beautiful, comfortable, functional clothing that suits most ladies. And she coped with this task brilliantly.

Dress with a wrap in front exactly matches the requirements of the designer. It was inexpensive, affordable for everyone, but at the same time elegant and sexy. The first models Diana demonstrated on her own, acting simultaneously as a fashion model. The feminine outfit was replaced by women's pants, which in the 70s firmly reigned in the fashionable Olympus.
