1960s Malcolm Starr Ringmaster Skirt designer-nina-ricci Hand painted silk chiffon overI love these Malcolm Starr pieces they are little works of art and really the best of the whole sixties arts and crafts movement. With the current trend back to maxis they also seem even more relevant. There is something shockingly fresh about wearing an elaborate and colorful maxi skirt with a chic modern top and shoes. This one is the classic Ringmaster skirt and depicts the classic animals of the circus with the big top colors all around. Lions,
