Silk Ceil Chapman Black Label - but what to call the technique of this skirt?

50s silhouette, I think

- and that collar has double buttons at the throat to close it up all prim.

Wow, that is pretty incredible! I think I'd call that rows of decorative horizontal blind tucks.

I would edit Maggie's description very slightly to read multiple decorative rows of horizontal released tucks.

Hi KD! I think Claire and Maggie are spot on. Fabulous dress.

That is a beauty!!!

Thanks, all - it's a decent size too - I had to significantly clip it and you can see my petite dress form doesn't "fill out" that classy bodice.

Waiting for a non windy / non rainy day to get better pictures... good old black silk, LOL!
