1960s Bright Feather Print and Gold Lame Dress

Original 1960s A-line dress by Global in a cheerful colour palette of ochre yellow, orange, red and green, complete with gold lame detail. It has a shallow V-neck to both front and back, with wide shoulder straps and a rear central zip, concealed with a placket and secured with a hook and eye closure. The bust has an inverted 'V' shaped detail and the skirt flares from the waist creating a flattering and feminine silhouette. The fabric is a very lightweight and high quality mesh, printed with brushstroke like patterns which resemble feathers. It is accented in gold lame threads which gives the dress a lovely luminosity. The dress is lined throughout with a peach coloured silky material, making it cool and comfortable for the wearer.

A versatile piece which can be worn as a day dress or as a bright addition to a party wardrobe. The inside label reads 'Made in the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong'. Although labelled a UK14, due to the nature of vintage sizing, we feel that it would best fit closer to a modern size 10-12 UK, or 6-8 US. The dress is in fabulous vintage condition with no marks or flaws to note.
