1960s Simon Massey Organza Floral Print Dress

About the Item

This pretty 1960s Simon Massey nylon organza floral print dress perfectly epitomises the style and feel of the London boutique scene. The designer has chosen a bold graphic floral print softened by warm, subtle tones in peach, soft lilac, amber, mulberry, and pale jade as an attractive surface design for the organza overlay of this piece. The simple shift cut under slip in soft peach generates a pleasant glow visible through the organza, leaving the sleeves sheer. The dress flares gently from the waist as the panels in the skirt open up towards the hem - this coupled with the gently tapered bishop-style cuffs makes for a romantic feel in contrast to the overall air of city chic. Four shallow pleats descending from the round neckline at the front of the dress are a smart, distinctive, yet modest feature. A well concealed central zip runs the length of the back on the reverse of the garment. This piece in in lovely condition with no notable flaws. It is worth acknowledging that the dress is a deceptively slim cut over the hip area. This piece in in lovely condition with no notable flaws.
