Vintage 1970s handmade floral paisley block print pleated midi dress

This dress comes from my private collection, that, in fact i have been spending too much time holding on to. It is so delicate and lovely, entirely handmade (hand stitched) with superb skills.

You could tell that whoever made this dress had put in a huge amount of passion and time, the precisely aligned patterns, the matching trim by the neck and the dress bottom, the placement of details such as the subtle puffed sleeves, the sophisticatedly made pleated folds, even the end part of the dress (inside) has lined with subtle matching fabric. So when you move, there are vibrant blue colour showing alongside. What a dream dress!!

It is best to fit a SMALL to a small MEDIUM person. 

Details: closure with snap buttons in the side. There are two belt strings in the side where you could keep the belt in place.

• Shoulder : 36cm / 14"
• Sleeves : 27cm / 10.5"

Please check the last photo for a mark which is really invisible when you wear it, located in the inside of the pleated flap. I am a size small medium with curve, it fits me perfectly!
