I have yet to do a post about vintage clothing ( one of my greatest passions) so today I have decided to share with you one of my favorite vintage dresses from my own collection. It's certainly not the oldest or most valuable dress but one I love all the same. This is by British designer John Bates and from the mid 70's. It is a very slinky poly crepe, lots of fabulous drape. Beleive it or not, I fit into this dress not that many years ago!
The detail is wonderful. It has an open back, the front ties around the neck like a halter dress and has that daring plunge down the center of the "bodice". There are small covered buttons on the side front of the waist panel, beautiful grecian drape where the skirt meets the waist panel and of course, that very sexy and glamorous split in the skirt.
Isnt it simply gorgeous?!
