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.

We advise paying close attention to the actual measurements of the garment. Please get in touch if you have any questions.

Description

• Pleat to back of skirt

Condition

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
