Regular price $ 168

Chic ivory silk column dress with embroidered floral motif and eyelet overlay, circa 1960s vintage.
Narrow straps, straight neckline and back, flat bow detail at lower front chest.
The entire dress is lined in pale blue ombre' acetate, which peeks through the eyelet openings, adding depth and subtle detail.
Most of the blue is situated on the front upper of the dress, with the hem having more of a match in color.
Bodice tapers a bit to the slightly bloused waistline.
Skirt is long and on the narrower side, with a modest back center slit.
Drape detail ties at front center waist.
Hidden zip up the back, with hook and eye closures at the top and at the waistline.
Interior grosgrain ribbon band with two snap closures at the waist.
One of several pieces from an estate- this dress was pattern made by someone with quite a bit of skill and taste- she spared no expense on materials.

Condition is very, very good- there is a light brownish smear on the skirt at about the back left knee, as well as a small smattering of brown dots on the front left strap, see photos.
Otherwise excellent- ideal as a wedding gown or for a formal event.
