1960s Teal Blue Floral Three Quarter Sleeve Dress

About the Item

Superb example of an early 1960s day dress but could just as easily be worn in more formal settings or as a cocktail dress. Cut in a beautifully iridescent teal blue silk feel fabric, it has a high, rounded neckline, with three quarter length sleeves. The print is comprised of yellow, white and lilac purple roses in an almost painterly style against a deep teal and black background. The dress fastens down the rear with the original metal zip, concealed by a placket. It has a fine braided cord waistband, and is gathered at the waist to create volume. The inside of the skirt has a separately lined petticoat in a soft cream calico type material, which helps to emphasise the contrast between the fitted bodice and full skirt. The dress is in excellent vintage condition, with no flaws or stains to note - it looks barely worn. It would best fit a size 4-6 UK, or 0-2 US. Unlabelled but excellent manufactured quality and was probably a wholesale design for a high end UK department store. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 32 in. (81.3 cm) Waist - 23 in. (58.4 cm) Hip - 40 in. (101.6 cm) Length - 38 in. (96.5 cm) Shoulders - 16 in. (46.6 cm)

  • Vintage 1990 Givenchy Haute Couture Sapphire Blue Draped Silk Velvet Dress
    By Givenchy
    Located in Beverly Hills, CA
    Givenchy, the name itself evokes glamour, refined elegance, simplicity and style. Givenchy's trademark of sculpted lines and luxurious fabrics make his work easily recognizable. This gorgeous cocktail, dating back to his 1990 Fall-Winter runway collection, is a beautiful example of his brilliance. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; liquid silk velvet in the prettiest sapphire blue color. I adore the seductive criss-cross plunge bodice with lean, long zipper-wrist sleeves. The sparkling rhinestone-encrusted side buttons create the perfect amount of drama to this timeless piece. An hourglass nipped-waist skirt with side draping finishes this garment off with a perfect femme fatale vibe. It is an exquisite example of wearable luxurious from one of the most important houses of the modern era.
