    Ossie Clark was one of Britain's most influential fashion designers of the 1960s and 1970s.

Clark was obsessed with historical dress, citing Madeleine Vionnet, Lucien Lelong and Charles James as his favourites.Thanks to his technical skills Ossie Clark’s dresses were sexy, womanly and exquisitely cut. Despite his short life and short-lived career , Ossie Clark is widely remembered as an innovator whose talent and vision transcended the microcosm of the King’s Road, and influenced countless designers worldwide, most notably Yves Saint Laurent and countless New York designers.This dress has the simple, flattering lines of a classic Ossie Clark design.
