Vintage 70s / 80s KOOS Van Den Akker Collage Print Midi Dress | Boho Prairie Style Size M

This is an exceptional example of a vintage 1970's / 80's Koos Van Den Akker Midi Dress.

The designer was a Dutch-born, New York based designer famously known as the master of "couture collage" or "wearable art." His garments frequently featured intricate patchwork, mismatched multi-fabric prints, and distinctive lace or fabric appliques.
