Mr Blackwell Best Dress

Mr Blackwell, better known as Richard Blackwell, and well known for the "Worst Dressed List"! Wikipedia states, "The name, "Mr. Blackwell" came in the late-1950s when he launched his clothing line. As with Valentino, Versace and later Richard Tyler, he and his line became synonymous. He was an important designer and during the 1960s he became the first in history to present his line on a television broadcast; and the first to make his line available for plus-size women. His designer dresses sold for between $800 to $1,000 and were very successful". Let's call this the NOT "Worst Dress List", since Mr Blackwell designed it, then you won't make the worst dress list wearing it!!! This gorgeous dress is available (at the moment) at Sydney's Vintage Clothing.
