Prettiest Early 1960s Malcolm Starr by Elinor Simmons Hand Beaded Pale Yellow Silk Dress designer-jean-muir The neckline is delicious -This is almost certainly the work of Elinor Simmons who designed for the Malcolm Starr label from the early 1960s to 1972. She excelled at the heavy embellished piece that the label was known for and this is a wonderful example of her work. Her early pieces did not include her name on the label but the presence of the B. Altman label and it style helps to date it to her time with the label. It is even more amazing in person and the photos cannot
