Simon Massey 1960s Organza Floral Print Dress

This pretty 1960s Simon Massey organza floral print dress perfectly epitomises the style and feel of the London boutique scene of this era. A bold graphic floral overlay is softened by warm, subtle tones in peach, soft lilac, amber, mulberry, and pale jade. The simple shift cut under-slip in peach generates a pleasant glow visible through the organza, leaving the sleeves sheer. The dress flares from the waist as the panels in the skirt open up towards the hem - this coupled with the tapered bishop-style cuffs makes for a romantic feel in contrast to the overall air of city chic. Four shallow pleats descending from the round neckline at the front of the dress are a smart, distinctive, yet modest feature. A well concealed central zip runs the length of the back on the reverse of the garment. This piece in in lovely condition with no notable flaws. It is worth acknowledging that the dress is a deceptively slim cut over the hip area. Would best suit US size 2, UK 6. Our model is a UK 6-8 and 5ft 4in (163cm) and this dress fit her well.
