About the Item
This early 1970s silk knitted dress is a great example of high-end manufactured Italian knitwear, and was made by Avagoff. A laid-back t-shirt silhouette, it is woven to a tonal checkerboard pattern from cream and cappuccino hues. It has short, slightly puffed sleeves and a rounded neckline. The neckline has a trompe l’oeil polo collar where the collar has been woven in a contrasting pale brown knit but actually sits flat. The button placket is also in brown knit and is secured with four large flower-shaped buttons in cream plastic. The dress is further detailed with brown along the sides and waistband, where two faux welt pockets shirt. The skirt falls to knee length. This dress is lined with a sheer chiffon slip and has shoulder pads.
In truly excellent vintage condition with no flaws to the weave or the colour. It has no size labels so please check our measurements closely. The fabric has some stretch so allow 2 cm or 1 in of flexibility. We believe it would best fit up to a size UK 10, US 6.

1950s Carlye Cream Cotton Knife Pleat Dress
By Carlye
Located in London, GB
A classic example of good quality American day wear. We love this vintage label - Carlye pieces just ooze refinement. This creamy beige cotton knife pleat dress has an elegant scoop neck augmented with 2 pearlescent buttons. These fasten on the shoulders and are purely decorative. There is an additional ochre coloured over-stitched zig-zag pattern on the neckline. The dress has an interesting and continuous arrangement of knife pleats both on the bodice and the skirt. The knife pleats on the bodice are formed on an additional panel which you can pass your hand through. The panel is attached at the waist and the neckline and this feature was to ensure that the pleats align closely with that of the skirt when wearing.
The bodice is lined in the same fine cotton fabric whilst the skirt is unlined. There is a side pocket just below the original metal zip at the side. The condition is excellent - we have noticed one small brown faded mark very close to the waistband; barely noticeable and we inspected a few times before seeing this. This would also be covered by any belt. Best fit for UK size 8-10, US size 4-6 and of smaller stature as Carlye was a petite range brand. Our model is a UK 6-8 and 5ft 4in. (163cm) and this dress was slightly roomy on her.
