Early 1960s vintage cocktail dress with waterfall organza cape to back.

In a shimmery blue and purple floral abstract print, this sleeveless shift dress will make a dramatic entrance and exit. 

Originally made in the Sixties by the owner I acquired this from so it's a handmade true vintage dress. I also have another of her dresses, listed as a sarong dress, in my store. This has a built in lining but is a lightweight (Nylon or Acetate) dress over-all. The back has a short, draped 'mini' cape that lays over the longer cape.

See condition report below.

Best fit: ML approx U.K. 16 / 18 see below measurements of dress.
Bust: 40 - 43 inch
Underarm to underarm: 21 1/2 inch
Waist: 37 inch
Armhole circumference: 20 inch
Hips: 48 inch
Length: 43 inch
Measurements are in inches and are taken with the garment laid flat.

Label: No. Handmade vintage dress.

Condition: Very good overall. Has approx 3 pin holes to cape plus a one inch sewn up rip (probably caused by a hot iron) plus a little patchiness to lining colour - see images.

Important: Use a cool iron where necessary and keep away from naked flames / heat sources.

All vintage items have been pre-used, unless stated otherwise, and may have gentle signs of wear.

Standard Royal Mail 2nd. Class UK delivery is included.
