General note
The brand's goal since 1975 was to have "a focus FOR creativity: offering contemporary fashion that was both joyful and uplifting!". The design of the dress most likely fell within that goal.

This French Promod dress from the 1990's - 2000's was an item I found while thrifting in Toronto. I was originally drawn to the dress as it reminded me of something a character from the 90's-00's might wear. I ended up purchasing it because it was a unique piece of clothing that wasn't like anything else I owned or had seen before.
