Rendered in the softest shade of cream chiffon and set off by iridescent rhinestones, this original 1960's pleated dress, is just the piece to add to your vintage collection.
The rounded neckline is set off by a raised pleated chiffon Mandarin style collar, which draws in along the nape with a hook and loop fastening. The simple shoulder line sets off the sleeveless cut. The fitted bodice, is accented by tailored darts along the bust-line. The cinched in waistline, is accented by a pleated chiffon belt feature which is decorated with a threaded iridescent rhinestone buckle along the centre. The elegant skirt drapes from the waistline in a chiffon pleated overlay, which is finished with a nylon threaded rolled hemline, creating a scalloped petal design. This dress is fully lined in cream nylon.
