The dress features an unusual geometric print in vivid emerald green, hot pink, magenta and purple, with a design in line with the Op Art and Mod fashions of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dress has a simple round neckline finished with a narrow band, short sleeves and a gently shaped bodice that follows the waist before falling into a softly flared skirt. A zipper at the centre back provides the closure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print consists of a broad vertical striped panel extending down the centre front to a series of concentric squares at the waist. Large geometric blocks of pink and green frame the upper body, while the lower skirt features an elaborate arrangement of elongated, intersecting loops and angular forms. The pattern continues around the sides and across the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dress is made from a fine, smooth jersey knit with a soft drape and slight sheen. The fabric has some stretch and appears consistent with rayon, although there is no fibre-content label to confirm its composition. The bodice only is lined in a green synthetic fabric, possibly nylon-based; the remainder of the dress is unlined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original \u003cb\u003eMontreux Knitting — Montreux \/ Genève\u003c\/b\u003e label remains at the back neckline, together with a separate size label marked 42, approximately equivalent to a modern US size 8–10.
