1960s? Dress by Valentino

$350.00

Very good vintage condition – there is a place on the right cuff where I had to sew up a rip. See photos. Priced as-is.

I did also have to rehem it; but you wouldn’t know that if I didn’t tell you!

  • 100% Wool. Is very lightweight, not at all like a winter coat

  • Print is that of buckeyes. Strange choice, but OK

  • EXCEPTIONALLY MADE. You can tell this is a quality garment

  • A-line

  • High neck collar with yoke top bodice

  • Button closure on left shoulder

  • Long full set in sleeves ending in buttoned cuffs

  • Buttons are plastic – have the woven button style

  • Pleated skirt 

  • Center back lapped metal zipper with very small pull

  • Zipper is hand-picked – very haute couture!

Measurements taken flat and doubled:

  • Bust 36”

  • Waist 30”

  • Hip 38”

Measurements taken flat:

  • Shoulder to shoulder 14”

  • Length 43 ¾”

  • Sleeve length 23”

This cute little dress kind of threw me for a loop. There is something slightly 70s about it, but then there is something a little 80s about it. So, let’s look at the label! According to The Vintage Fashion Guild Label Resource, this label was used in the 1960s! Go figure!
