Early 1970s Brick Red Wool Crepe Balloon Sleeve Maxi Dress 8 10
Incredible 1970s handmade maxi dress. I initially bought this piece for myself but it sadly didn’t fit so I’ll be especially envious of whoever it ends up with! The most gorgeous shade of brick red in colour with a sweet beagle collar & long billowing balloon sleeves. Button up closure the length of the front with a long flowing skirt & a tie under the bust which cinches in at the rear. Size 8-10.
Measurements (these are taken from the rear of the garment when laid flat so need to be doubled where appropriate):
Pit to pit: free due to style
Under bust: 16.5”
Full length: 54”
Material: unstated - feels like wool crepe
Condition: good - handmade piece so slightly untidy and naive on the seams but these can only be seen from the inside & not when the item is worn
When choosing to buy vintage please bear in mind these items have been loved before & may show general wear and use in accordance with their age. Any noticeable flaws will be noted in the listing. Please review both descriptions & photos carefully before making a purchase.
Sizings are all approximate in line with the measurements of any particular piece, to be sure something is the right fit for you we recommend checking these against a similar garment you already own before making your decision.
All sales are final however I’m always happy to re-share pieces to socials in the event of them not being suitable for whatever reason in the hope of finding them a new home. For further details on how that works or for any other queries, feel free to contact us at cordialvintage@gmail.com or message us on instagram & I’ll do my best to assist.
