Petite Alert - Perfect colour for Autumn Fall - this beautiful copper bronze with gold lurex raw silk, sleeveless cocktail dress is so gorgeous.
Early 60s - most of the stuff from this particular lady is around the 61 period.
Simple, elegant and stylish with a slimline bow at the front, finishing of the bodice pleat. The gold and grey are woven as part of the fabric - it's a stunner. The copper part of the fabric has a sheen when catching the light.
Metal zipper, no maker's label but looks hand stitched.
Fully lined.
Measures when laid flat edge to edge max:
36" bust best fit 34"
13 1/2" shoulders
28" waist
38" hips
51" length
Condition - superb. The quality is just fabulous. This came from a massive estate Georgian mansion house in the South West of England. I suspect this was specifically tailor-made for the lady of the house.
