About the Item
This playful, bright mid-length shift dress is by collectable British designer Susan Small. Dating back to the eponymous brand’s heyday in the late 1960s, early 1970s, it is tailored from pure silk patterned with a cheerful print of bright flowers in sage, pink, lilac, yellow and orange. The gracefully fluid cut can be cinched with the coordinating belt with circular buckle. A shirtwaister style, the dress fastens down the front with a hidden zip and popper closure. Fabric-covered buttons adorn the front of the dress and an attached, matching scarf ties at the neck.
The original label reads “Susan Small - Made in England”. This dress has no composition or size label, due to its age but is made from silk and is fully lined in white silk. It is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note. Suggested best fit for a UK 10-12 or US 6-8. Our model is a UK 8-10 and 5ft 11in (180cm) and this dress fit her well with room to spare.

1960s Jean Muir Silk Liberty Floral Print Dress with Scarf
By Jean Muir
Located in London, GB
This is a fine Jean Muir 1960s dress and matching tassel scarf and is without question, the best ensemble from this designer we have ever had in our collection. Early in her career, Muir worked with Liberty fabric and this striking psychedelic silk print could certainly be a Liberty design. It features a riot of bright purple, blue, orange, pink and green tones in a stylised paisley print. Each of the designs, contained in long rows of bands, is slightly different. The dress is a high shirtwaister design with an empire line bust, a low scoop neck and it fastens at the front with 18 fabric buttons and loops. There is a little upturned ruffle on the waistband and the skirt is gently gathered. The sleeves have a gathered cuff and upturned ruffle that echoes the waistline. The dress bodice is not lined; however, the skirt is lined in a quality pink viscose. Labelled a UK size 12, this is small in today's sizing and probably a better fit for a UK 8-10 or US 4-6.
The accompanying scarf is a double thickness triangular shape with a row of hand tied purple tassels down one side. It is doubled sided with one print matching the dress while the other side is the same design but in a different colourway, focusing on blues, turquoises and orange. It's an absolutely beautiful piece worn alone or could could be styled either side to compliment or contrast the dress colourway. A very rare set indeed to find in superb vintage condition and from the very earliest part of Jean Muir's career. One for the serious collector, wearer of fine boho...
