I rarely see this dress crop up and have always searched for her, and I know she is extremely coveted among collectors, she is a really unusual and rare example of Lauras romantic work in the late 70s and truly is an iconic piece. She has a regency style cut with cap puff sleeves, high waist and round frilled neckline. She has waist ties to cinch the waist and a stunning flowing skirt. The thing I truly love the most about this girl is her gorgeous lilac colour and print, its kind of like a hand drawn floral wreath print, and truly is divine. I hope this dress finds the absolute best home, I know she will be so loved..\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis girl is approx UK size 6\/8\/10\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust - 36\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist - 32\" does sit high\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength - 59\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. Cold wash. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear.  A few tiny fade spots in places, not noticeable and do not detract. This has been reflected in her price, the last version of this dress I sourced sold for £250.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThis 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.
