This auction is for one of two super sexy Ossie Clark era Radley dresses made from moss crepe I have on offer this week (both came from the same original owner).

 

This dress is an amazing shape with what I would call “deco” princess line paneling, and the most amazing open back which has been laced up. This is SO Ossie!!! The dress is a really vibrant, rich purple and accented with white contrast stitching. The lacing means it can easily be made a little bit tighter if need be.

Bust: 36-38in

Waist: 29in

Length: 42in (not inc straps)

Roughly suited to a size 10 to 12 I would think. Labeled as a 14- but seems a little smaller

 

 

Condition: This dress is unfortunately victim to the classic moss crepe problem- fading. The photos make it look worse than it is I think, but this is particularly bad on one side. I would say it is still wearable as is though!!! There is also a little bit of breakage in the contrast stitching, and a few (very minor) pulls.

Welcome to the second of my two FAB-U-LOUS seventies sales. This week it is "prim and glam". Lots of incredibly wearable pieces including fabulous maxi dresses and super short dagger point collar dresses. Lots of collectible labels (would i offer anything else!!! ; ) ) including Ossie Clark, Radley and Biba.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to now having started the masters (that i mention below) i am now very time poor and it may take me a few days to post parcels. Let me know if your parcel is urgent and I can try to send it quicker!!!

 A little bit of background on me: I am an obsessive vintage collector and have amassed a huge collection of vintage from Victorian right through to the 1980s. I am about to embark on a rather pricey masters at the Royal College of Art (studying design history) and henceforth I am having to sell off large portions of my collection to fund my studies. Over the coming weeks I’ll be listing everything from glamorous 30s evening dresses, to novelty print 50s day dresses to 60s beaded shift dresses. I can’t believe myself quite how much I have amassed! I am also selling items from the collection of Naomi Thompson, including items that featured in her recent Style me Vintage: Clothes book.

If you are interested in my collection visit [link removed by eBay] for more information or “like” my Advantage In Vintage page on facebook where I will also be putting up previews of some of the items coming up on ebay.

 

 

Due to Royal Mail upping their prices most items will now be sent by courier, this takes longer but will mean I don’t have to charge you the INSANE prices of royal mail. If you would like you parcel sent by royal mail instead, please contact me in advance.

 

If you need an item more quickly please ask and I can send 1st class recorded at an additional cost. If the item you are purchasing sells for over £100 the item will be sent special delivery so please wait for an invoice. 

 
Most items are styled with petticoats underneath. These are not included in the sale.
 
Items may be pegged or pinned to mannequin to show fit more accurately
 
 Most of the items I sell are vintage, this means they will not be like new items and show some age, but where possible I will always mention this! 
 
 I will accept all types of payment inc. cheque and postal order, just let me know!  I expect payment within 5 days, if this will be a problem please ask, I don’t mind waiting longer just so long as I know.  
 
 I ship worldwide, just message for prices. My shipping price listed is for EU. Outside EU PLEASE CONTACT FOR PRICES   
   
I do not accept returns unless goods are faulty.
