This is a gorgeous 60s evening party wear dress made from a beautiful metallic paisley psychedelic pattern in green and blue on a black background. This dress has an empire line, with a black decorative trim cupping the bust and going over the straps. This dress therefore flares slightly from the bust. There is a decorative bow at the centre bust of this trim, and a zipper at the back of the dress to fasten you in. This dress has a dark brown polyester inner lining which has been hand sewn in, meaning this dress may be handmade.

This dress is perfect for anyone looking for a classic 60s silhouette, and for anyone looking for some vibrant metallics in their party wear. We think this would look great paired with some black vintage style heels and dainty jewellery. As this material doesn't stretch, please compare your measurements below.
