1960s Black Crepe Full Length Fishtail Evening Dress
About the Item
Made in the 1960s, this classic, sleeveless black crepe dress is in excellent vintage condition. A V-shaped, wide neckline reveals the decolletage. Delicate pleating at the rear and flared, fishtail tailoring to the skirt add interesting detail to this super flattering dress. A concealed zip secures the back and it is fully lined in viscose / acetate.
Everyone needs a failsafe piece in their wardrobe - make this elegant vintage piece your go-to little black dress. The designer label has been lost with the passage of time but this is high end manufactured quality and most likely would have retailed in a luxury department store. No issues condition wise; we note the dress has been taken in and tapered at the zip to make it smaller. The petite measurements would suit sizes up to a UK 6 or US 0-2.

- 1950s Ceil Chapman Black Silk Taffeta Full Circle DressBy Ceil ChapmanLocated in London, GBThis is a brilliant example of Ceil Chapman's early work from the late 1940s to early 1950s and the black taffeta silk design is exquisite. Its the first thing you notice about this dress which has the most unusual construction. The skirt's textured element from a distance looks like a floral design but its actually a large number of circular pleated stitched designs. The way the fabric is pulled and stitched creates an almost 3D effect. We have never seen this work before but it would have taken a very skilled seamstress and an incredible amount of time to do it. The dress style is a classic shirtwaister design with three taffeta covered buttons to fasten the bodice which is beautifully shaped and Princess seamed. The sleeves are three quarter length and feature a folded cuff...Category
