This is a really beautiful and versatile Georgette fabric dress by Doree Leventhal Limited. Several of this designer's dresses have passed through Circa Vintage over the years and they have always been lovely quality. This dress is in excellent vintage condition and gently seamed and darted to shape the figure. The dress retains its attached fabric belt that fastens to the rear with a bow. There is a centre seam concealed zip and the original metal zipper. The dress is lined in acetate and there is a very pleasing weight to the dress due to the wide banding on the bottom hem. The embellishment is made up of alternate lace ribbon trim, glass bugle and rocaille beads and individually studded crystals. There is a great deal of work involved in this as each was hand sewn. The condition is remarkable and this piece is well preserved. We have not been able to spot a bead out of place. A great choice for formal day wear or as a wedding guest and equally could be dressed up for evening attire. It will fit up to a UK size 10-12 / US 4-6.
