1970s Ivory Silk Crepe Couture Boho Dress With Lace Trim Detail

This enchanting 1970s silk crepe couture dress in pale ivory is unlabelled but we suspect this was either Hardy Amies or Norman Hartnell as it it British couture; of exceptional quality and in wonderful vintage condition. It is comprised of fine silk crepe and has an elegant bohemian aesthetic with a gentle scoop neckline, peasant sleeves and a floor sweeping skirt. The cuffs, neckline and seams of the skirt are embellished with teardrop shaped lace trim to accentuate the romantic, feminine feel of the piece. The fabric at the reverse of the dress secured at the neck with hook and eye fastenings then falls open to the waist. There is a concealed zip fastening from the centre waist to line of the thigh. The skirt is lined in an additional layer of silk crepe. This lovely dress would be an excellent choice for formal events and would make a beautiful alternative bridal gown. Would best suit US size 2 - 4, UK size 6 - 8. Our model is a UK 6-8 and 5ft 4in. (163cm) and this dress was a good fit on her.
