I have a forever love affair with toile du jouy, and this rare 70s Richard Shops beauty is one of my favourite toile dresses ever sourced. She has an ivory base with a grey toile print, and is crafted from a stunning fine cotton with lining. She has a beautiful paired back silhouette with stunning sleeves, frill neckline and a flowing skirt, and when worn she is just truly divine.. I hope she finds a beautiful home!
This girl measures to approx UK size 8/10 small waisted 12
Bust - up to 38"
Waist - 29"
Length - 55"
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
She has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear. She has a small area of print fade to one side of her bodice, this is not noticeable and does not detract.
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.
