“裹身裙”40歲了！

Diane von Fürstenberg transformed women’s clothing with her wrap dress and became the most powerful woman in fashion in the process.

俄羅斯猶太裔設計師黛安·馮芙絲汀寶用她的裹身裙豐富了女性服飾種類，成為時尚界最具影響力的女性。

“The first wrap dress arrived in 1973 in a wood-grain print. The dress was nothing, really – just a few yards of fabric with two sleeves and a wide wrap sash. But the V-neck wrap design fit a woman’s body like no other dress: snug around the chest and arms, tied flatteringly slim around the waist, full enough over the legs for a woman to take an unrestricted stride, yet tight enough to show off her bottom,” said von Fürstenberg in her autobiography.

“1973年，第一條裹身裙問世。這條裙子實在沒什么特別的，只是幾尺布加上兩只袖子和一條束身寬腰帶而已。但是V領和束身腰帶設計比任何當時的裙子都更能體現(xiàn)女性身材：胸部和手臂處寬松舒適，腰部的塑形恰到好處，寬松的裙擺讓行動不受限制，腰部的緊身設計卻又能凸顯翹臀。”黛安·馮芙絲汀寶在她的自傳中寫道。

When it launched, the wrap dress filled a gap in a market segmented by hippie rags, designer gear, fuddy-duddy polyester garments and not much in between. “It really was an answer to something women really wanted,” says Kathlin Argiro, a dress designer and adjunct professor of fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. “It was a dress with a sleeve, so your arms were covered; you were appropriate but still sexy, and that was revolutionary.”

裹身裙的問世，填補了嬉皮士服裝、時裝和守舊的聚酯材料服裝以外的市場空白。“裹身裙真的就是一些女性夢寐以求的服飾。”凱思琳·安杰洛說。她是一位裙裝設計師，也是美國時裝技術學院時裝設計專業(yè)的副教授。“這是一件帶袖子的裙子，你的胳膊并沒有裸露在外。它簡單大方，卻性感依舊，是革命性的創(chuàng)新。”
