About the Item

A striking example of early 1970s American fashion, this vintage maxi dress from Donald Brooks Boutique showcases the designer’s flair for dramatic yet wearable eveningwear. Crafted from a lightweight black and silver metallic textile—likely a Lurex blend—the dress features a bold diamond motif that shimmers beautifully under light, offering all the glamour of sequins or beading without the weight. The silhouette is clean and sculptural, with a sleek zip-front closure and a daring front slit that adds fluidity and movement. The bodice and skirt are fully lined in black crepe for comfort, while the unlined sleeves maintain lightness and ease. Unmistakably glamorous yet effortlessly modern, this piece is perfect for collectors and eveningwear connoisseurs alike. Label: Donald Brooks Boutique Origin: Made in USA Date: Circa early 1970s Construction: Front metal zipper Fully lined bodice and skirt; unlined sleeves No content label; dry clean only Fit: Best fits a modern size XS Measurements (approximate): Shoulders: 15 in. Bust: 33 in. Waist: 30 in. Hips: 36 in. Sleeves: 20 in. Length (shoulder to hem): 51 in. Condition: Very good vintage condition.
