We are delighted to present this perfectly elegant 1970s maxi dress in avocado green, featuring 2-tone crochet trim and a wide sash waist tie.  This is a wonderfully versatile dress - wear with some sparkling chandelier earrings for a glam evening ensemble, or grab some oversized sunnies, a long floaty neckscarf, pick up your basket and get picnicking!  The long-sleeved, long-skirted beauty is freshly cleaned and ready for its next chapter in life.

Label:
'Prova' - 'British made'. Polyester. Size 16 (but as this is a vintage size, see measurements below). Care details supplied on reverse.

Construction notes:
Constructed with long flowing panels, cinching at a high waist with the sash/tie, allowing fit to a range of waist sizes. Faux-wrap bustline, crochet detailing from shoulder to waist on each side of the bodice, matched at the cuffs. Closes with a plastic zip and hook & eye to the centre rear. Combination of open and overlocked seams. 1.5" hem allowance, minimal seams.

Measurements:
Noting all are approximate, taken with the garment laying flat, doubled where appropriate.  The fabric of this dress has some stretch, but do allow for ease when considering fit.
Shoulder-shoulder - 14.5" / Pit-to-pit - 38" / Waist (natural waist, as cut) - up to 32" (raised waist, at ties) 34" / Hip -  40" / Sweep - 82" / Shoulder-hem - 56.5"

Condition:
In absolutely lovely vintage condition - only flaws to note are two small pulls, one tiny mark and 1 faint smudge to lower skirts, and one tiny mark to the sash - all only noticable on close inspection and mentioned for accuracy (see photos for examples).

Care:
Labelled hand wash, but machine washes beautifully at 30°C, drip dry.
