front opening and hem plus a large statement ruffle all the way around the neckline

We believe this gown was made as part of Valentino’s Resort 2011 collection or a bridal collection from the same year

falling from under the bodice in soft pleats

These cotton thread loops are easily snipped off but we have left them on in case the client wishes to use their own belt

1980s Marjon Couture Lilac Evening Maxi Dress 2017_dress front opening and hem plusThis high quality 1970s bright lilac evening dress was made by British label Trina Lewis and Marjon Couture at Baker Sportswear. The dress has a bustier top which is boned all the way around, held up by two delicate shoulder straps. The bust is lined with pale pink lilac satin. The fabric is cut generously to give a bouncy silhouette; the pretty neckline is formed from layers of lilac faux taffeta and the waist is ruched as though a sash is wrapped
