Meet Vermillion, she is a beautiful late 70s printed velvet midi dream dress by Origin. Vermillion has such gorgeous fabric with an unusual print which in certain lights looks a lot fainter than on the photos and her base colour is a rich burgundy. She has a gorgeous cut with high mandarin collar, mutton sleeves and a nipped in waist with a full skirt. She is the perfect day to day dress and would look gorgeous paired with beautiful boots for the colder months.
This girl would work on UK sizes 16/18 possibly 20 best.
Bust - up to 45"
Waist - 36"
Length - 48.5"
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
The Vermillion has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. Dry Clean Only. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear.
ALL vintage velvet comes with small signs of wear to the pile of the fabric. This is part of the charm.
This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.
