A great example of Moschino’s mastery of cut and construction, this evening dress is made from men’s heavy wool suiting fabric. It is constructed to appear like a man’s suit jacket pieced into a strapless fitted dress, with the lapel at the neckline and the front pocket placed sideways on the dress.
