Shipping calculated at checkout.


Deep black 1960s velvet mini dress with the most fab buttons to the back that I have ever seen! The front is simple and flattering with a tight bodice and a light A-line to the skirt. With the almost pinafore style to the cut, this dress would look great with either a shirt or polo jumper underneath for a Mod look, perfect for Autumn/Winter. Wear with either boots or cute block shoes and you might as well call yourself Twiggy!

• Four large decorative buttons to the back with clear bugle bead domes and faux pearl centres
• V-neck line to the back
• Square neckline to the front
• Darts to the bust and empire line waist seam for a fitted bodice
• A-line skirt with nipped waist
• Sleeveless
• Made from a mid weight deep black cotton velvet cotton (some photos have been lightened to show detail)
• Fastens using a metal zip to the side, Aero brand, and a hook and eye
• Pleat to back of skirt
• Backed in an acetate lining
• There is a very small fix to the back of one shoulder strap (shown in last photo), and I believe that this has been shortened from a maxi at some point. There appears to be no crushing of the velvet 
• Care/composition: No labels
