Bill Tice pieces are among my favorites and his one shoulder pieces are especially fabulous. The ones I have had in the shop prior to this have all been dated to 1981 from an advertisement that I sourced with none other then Jerry Hall wearing another version of his single shoulder dress. The one I have available here today is a little extra special because the way that it has been designed will allow you to wear it multiple ways. 

Every girl that has bought a Bill Tice piece through me has loved it. His pieces are easy to wear and care for. His one shoulder dresses in particular are one of those fail safe pieces that you know is going to work every time you put it on. When I do get one in they tend to fly out the door. The dress is insanely sexy with an easy to wear caftan feel that is suspended from one single shoulder. I love the heavy silver metal ring that wraps around the single shoulder for detailing. This snake feeling metal loop is moveable and is part of what gives you the option to wear it different ways. The dress is made of a black liquid jersey that feels amazing on and has the added bonus of traveling very well. It is the kind of piece you can throw into your suit case and slip on with either flats or heels when you reach some far off destination and be instantly ready to go. It is made from two pieces that are attached to each other. There is an inner strapless dress with elastic around it for comfort. This elastic lets you be able to wear that part of the dress up and over the chest or around the waist as a skirt. Attached to that is the angled overlay and you can see from my photos that you can wear this on either shoulder with full coverage underneath, or with the inner piece set lower. You could even add a Tee or Bandeau under it. It can also be worn scooped and draped at the front so the back is left bare, or even more as a cape with the inner piece either pulled up as a dress or left low as a skirt. There are probably even more ways  to style it then this even if you played around with it. A slit up one leg that shows when you walk or sit is the perfect finishing detail. So fun and  such a versatile piece. Excellent condition
