There is a little story behind this incredible dress, but then, there is often story behind many of the vintage clothes you see me wearing.
I was kindly given a bag of clothing from friend of a friend(Sundae thank you, we've never met but you're a gem), who had had these clothes given to her by an elderly lady, and then sat in her cupboard for quite a while.
Imagine my amazement when I pulled this out of the bag.
Like most vintage you dig out of unusual places, it could do with a dry clean, but apart from that it is in mint condition.
I'm not entirely sure where I will wear it, but I have been known to throw a party for the sake of a piece of clothing before, so martinis and canapés could be on the cards.

The fur shrug is perfect with that stunning dress...very 40's Hollywood glamour / Joan Crawford.
Wow, that dress is amazing. You look like you are going to a casino in Monaco or on a yacht for a party. Very vintageglam my dear!
The dress is lovely, but perhaps a little too long?? I'm not sure..
