The Tiktiner label was founded by Dina Tiktiner Viterbo in France in 1949 and the company eventually honed their aesthetic to suit the needs of the jet set that spent most of their time on the beaches and night scene of the Cote d'Azur. Their pieces were high quality and were dedicated to the the life style of the girl who needed to throw pieces into a suit case and then pull them out without a lot of pressing. Plus they needed to be versatile so many of the pieces serve double or triple duty with a quick change of a shoe or bag. This is a lovely dress that really shows this life style influence. Made of a light weight black jersey fabric that has been screened with a fabulous abstract design. The top is fitted and lean with skinny sleeve and a pretty draped neckline. Attached ties sit at the waist and allow you to cinch it in as much as you wish. The skirt is swingy and fun with a bit of volume. Excellent condition.

The bodice is unlined and the skirt has a black silky rayon lining. It closes with a hand set back painted zipper. Attached ties at the waist
