Command the room in a piece that completely transcends seasonal trends. This gorgeous late 1960s maxi dress which has been beautifully handmade is the ultimate expression of individual style.

Offering a striking, structural silhouette that effortlessly rivals today’s design houses, this floor length dress is designed for the modern woman who refuses to wear what everyone else is wearing.

It is made  from a mid weight, highly tactile pale gold and light tan/cinnamon metallic circle-jacquard brocade, the fabric possesses a mesmerizing dimensional texture that beautifully captures low event lighting.

In a classic 60s silhouette it has a simple Empire line design with a curved bust line seam. The long skirt falls away in a simple A line shape.

It features 1.25 inch wide sequinned braid around the high neckline.  With the dress being sleeveless it creates a built-in statement collar that eliminates the need for neck jewellery. Just add a sleek updo, statement hoop or chandelier earrings and minimalist heels.

It has a 20inch central back metal zip.
