1960s Turquoise Floral Silk Organza Maxi Dress with Keyhole Neckline

About the Item

This 1960s couture maxi dress is crafted from what feels like silk organza with a swirling print of flowers, leaves and vines in blue, green and purple hues. It has an A-line cut and falls to ankle-length, and has pretty, long bell-sleeves which are sheer and tie at the cuff. The wide neckline adds an easy grace and features a keyhole cut-out at the front. The back has an open detail and is tied at the back of the neck whilst the lower part is secured by a lovely row of fabric-covered buttons with fabric loops. This dress is fully lined in a blue silk feel fabric, with a blue tonal hidden zip. This dress is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note. Incredibly well-crafted with many hand-finished couture details; the dress has lost any labels it may have had with the passage of time. Please double-check our measurements below. Our model (5ft 4in / 180cm) is a UK 6-8 or US 2-4 and this dress was a little roomy on her. The fabric has no stretch. We estimate a good fit for sizes up to a UK 10 or US 6.

Located in London, GB
This 1960s cocktail dress is intricately adorned with pale-aqua ruched manmade chiffon stitched in a scalloped pattern across the entire body, the resulting effect is soft and cloud-like; the only distraction the occasional ivory or blue pearl which trims the chiffon. Heavy beading and embroidery feature across the bust and continue onto the wide straps. Here, ombré vines made from dark grey-blue beads and pale blue stitching encircle light blue iridescent beads and pearls - decadent detailing that makes this gown a stand-out piece for any occasion. The chiffon is sewn onto the integral viscose blend lining to prevent the dress from being sheer. A parted Watteau train...
