About the Item

This 1970s chiffon maxi-dress has a striking print; an unusual, scribbled, artistic take on marble that swirls orange, pale pink, magenta, black, apple green and brown together to kaleidoscopic effect. The silhouette is very typical of the era with an elegant high fold-over neckline and romantic bell-sleeves. The dress is cinched at the waist by a wide band of elasticated smocking which is finished with pale coffee brown thread. The same smocking finishes the cuffs. This dress fastens at the back of the neck with a hidden tonal zip and hook-and-eye clasp. It is fully lined in cream satin. This piece is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note. Unlabelled, we cannot attribute this mesmerising piece to any designer but it was SOMEBODY. Best fit for sizes up to a UK 10 or US 4-6 with some flexibility on the hip for those a size up. The fabric has no stretch. MEASUREMENTS BUST - 35 in. (89 cm) WAIST - 28 in. (71 cm) HIP - 44 in. (112 cm) LENGTH - 54.5 in. (138 cm)
