60s Women's Mini Dress Vintage Cocktail Empire Waist Silver and Black Medium VFG

$ 74.00 Sale Save

Not your typical 60s mini, this dramatic vintage dress has an edgy feel! It has an empire waist bodice with scooped neck and a curving waist accent detail. The miniskirt has gentle gathering at the high waist for ease. There is a unique accent that reminds me of  carwash, combining elements of a tabard vest in front. The black “scarf” is part of the bodice along the front armhole and outer neckline, then floats as panels with silver bands at the bottom.

I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.

For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.

For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.

Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.

The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.

If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
