Guy Laroche Sundress

Well, hopefully, someone will know this Diffusion label...

I have a fuschia, Laroche sundress that I'd date as late-70s or early-80s if I didn't know those styles are copied now and without any knowledge of the label.

What think ye?

Steph -

Well, I can certainly understand how you might have trouble dating this - it doesn't give you much to go on (style-wise) does it?

My Wild Guess - '80's, mid- to late-. I'm basing that solely on the fact that it's a 'diffusion' label - that term, more than 'boutique' or the designer's first name or initials (a la Emanuel, Ralph, YM or CK) really say's '80's' to me. Hopefully someone will come along with a more definitive opinion.

Steph...somewhere amongst my mess of books, etc., is a book that has the history of the diffusion labels...let me see if I can find it and will
post back.
