TRUE VINTAGE 1960s - '70s FULL LENGTH FLORAL EASTER PARTY GOWN

,Zooming into Spring and Summer now, you may be looking around for outfits to wear this Easter weekend . . … .

A beautiful gown in a pastel floral print, perfect for a Spring dance, dinner, theater event, etc. – anything that this week’s celebrations or events might throw at you.

This one has an empire waistline seam, a sheer layer of fabric over an opaque lining and a center back zipper. No slip necessary, though I do have a true vintage long crinoline underneath in this picture. I’ll show that to you later as it is very interesting, itself.

I’m not sure whether this dress was made in the ’60s or ’70s. I lean toward the ’60s, but it is a classic style with only one tag left inside that is not a definite answer to the question. But, the fabric just has a ’60s feel to it …

IMG_1425 IMG_1427 IMG_1428Although this lace overlay style has been copied a lot in the last few years, it’s never done as well as this!  How unusual to see this deep Wedgwood blue color fully lined in a dusty rosy lilac color.

With a fabric-covered belt and the whole bit – very pretty and feminine.  This one is not equipped with netting and under-skirts, but you could put a crinoline underneath  if desired.

I watched the film The Theory of Everything last night (the story of Stephen Hawking and his wife), which began in the early ’60’s in England.  Lots of dresses like this in those scenes!

Here’s the flip-side of sweet – my favorite strapless number from the 1950’s. Rayon with beading and a killer fit.

I love to imagine where this one has or could have been. Smokey nightclubs come to mind. Maybe she was a singer.
