About the Item

This bohemian mini-dress was crafted in the 1970s by an unknown designer. Crafted entirely from crochet and therefore completely see-through, it has a wide neckline with swinging, flared angel-sleeves. Woven from white manmade thread, the crochet knit recalls doilies and is detailed with psychedelic flowers and star-filled circles. Pretty scallop hems finish the cuffs and bottom hem, whilst the neckline is finished with a crochet trim woven to look like a row of leaves. The back has a small keyhole cut-out and fastens with a mother-of-pearl button at the rear of the neck. Dresses like these have spawned hundred of modern copies but this a very well made original in what appears to be a quality polyester. In excellent vintage condition with no marks or holes to the crochet. There are no composition or size labels so please check our measurements below carefully. The fabric has no stretch.

Located in London, GB
This intricately hand crafted full-length jacket dates back to the late Edwardian era of the 1910s.
