Woman's Ensemble: Bodysuit and Skirt

American (born Argentina), 1933 - 1989

With riotous patterns and bright colors, Giorgio di Sant’Angelo’s clothing expressed freedom and confidence, and offered a thoroughly modern way of dressing, very different from stark space-age designs of the time. Incorporating influences from ethnic, "gypsy," and hippie fashions, his unstructured, body-conscious separates—such as this low-cut leotard and long beribboned floral skirt—were adaptable and adventurous—perfect for fashion individualists.
