Crème de la Crème

When you think about beautiful, ethnic caftans and whimsical chiffon ankle length dresses who comes to mind...? The originator of boho chic, Thea Porter, of course! Having been born and raised in the Middle East, Thea Porter's design inspiration came from the gorgeous gowns women wore and the luxurious fabrics they were made from. Her designs peaked during the late 60's hippie movement. And many notable women such as Elizabeth Taylor, Raquel Welch, and Barbara Streisand favored her gowns.

Today, we have this extraordinary Thea Porter gown in a luscious cream chiffon with exquisite metallic embroidery detail and optional tassel to accentuate the waist. With a gown like this, everyone's inner Middle Eastern princess will be begging for more!





Thea Porter cream chiffon evening gown with metallic embroidery and matching tassel. c. 70's. size 4-6 SOLD
