VFG label resource shows another Muto label, describing his work as 'inexpensive eveningwear.'
Not so, I think, this....
It's 2 pieces in grasshopper green Dupioni? (looks like linen, but it's silk). fully lined in a fine goldenrod silk faille.
Please forgive the quick n dirty pix...


The top open-laces down the front ala wenchwear, the outer sleeve puffs over a fitted inner sleeve, there's a 6 inch peplum.
The skirt falls in a poufy gathered double tier to a midi length, 30 inch drop from mid-wide waistband.
MUTO label as shown, with Bonwit Teller AND a hand-crayoned? 'J'. Fashion show mark? Theatrical wear? Any clue/idea?
Given the really spectacular cleavage and midi length, I'm thinking 70s, but this is whistling in the wind....any input GREATLY appreciated.
