1950s Abstract Floral Print Cotton Dress
About the Item
This original late 1950’s to early 1960s cotton dress features a painterly composition of single abstract flowers with green halo backgrounds and a larger composition floral spray in bold colours of green, red and orange making for a really striking print.
It has little capelet sleeves and a wide scoop neck, with a side zip to fasten to the waist. The bodice is darted while the waistband has wide box pleats for a fitted look. Great vintage condition with the cotton retaining that polished look and no faults. It looks barely been worn since it was made by a dressmaker or seamstress in France; no are labels present. Could fit a variety of sizes up to UK 12 or US 8.

- 1970s Ted Lapidus Muslin Hooded Swiss-Dot DressBy Ted Lapidus BoutiqueLocated in London, GBThis 1970s dress is a phenomenal design piece from Ted Lapidus and from his flagship boutique line in Paris. It would have almost certainly been made by the same team as the haute couture collections and is in a wonderful cream checked muslin that features large embroidered Swiss dots. The dress is a v neck shirtwaister design with fabric covered buttons down to the upper-waist. The gathered skirt reaches to the floor. The dress features romantic, poet style, three-quarter length sleeves. To give greater volume to the piece, there is a cream muslin petticoat retained and original to this ensemble. This is not attached to the dress; therefore, the dress could be worn with or without to suit the wearer's taste. A ribbon belt which matches the V neck and arm trims is also included. In really excellent vintage condition, there are just a couple of very small, scattered marks in the muslin, but these are very faded and not at all obvious or noticeable when wearing. The dress would certainly benefit from future cleans as required. There is no size label but we estimate it a best fit for UK size 6-8, US 2-4 on account of the waist size. Ted Lapidus began his long fashion career at the house of Christian Dior before branching out on his own in 1951. He is known for his unisex style of dressing and was worn by leading French stars...Category
