Fall 1973 Karl Lagerfeld for Chloe Quilted Bodice Silk Dress & Scarf designer-genny Fully lined through the bodiceThe quilting technique used on this dress is distinctive and it was this feature that allowed me to find the date of the collection. We tracked down a photo of Karl receiving an award in 1973 and just behind him is a model in a dress from that years collection that uses the same quilting as we see on this example. This matches what I was told about the purchase date form its original owner as well. It is these collections during the years between 1969
