RARE FIND - 1960s FULL LENGTH BALL GOWN
Original 1960s handmade ball gown in stiffened orange gold polyester satin.
The cut is precise and angular as seen in the empire line bodice.
The sleeves are very slim and tailored with angular seams
At the back is a Watteau style drape which conceals the zip opening.
There is no size label. In my opinion the fit is an S / UK 10 with slim cut arms. (arm hole is normal size!)
We advise that you check all the measurements below.
The garment is a mid- heavy weight (718 g) and is unlined
Excellent Condition. Bright Clean Fresh Colour. Some marking seen on the edge of hidden underside of the drape at the back where it has touched the floor presumably (INSIGNIFICANT!)
