Meet Awakening, she is an INCREDIBLE and truly beautiful rare late 1960s one of a kind bloody toned dream dress, wonderfully crafted in the most stunning plush and silky red velvet. I love the understated vampy elegance on this beauty, with a sultry fitted bodice, full length skirt and medieval flounced sleeves. This one is a true Bleeding Heart and an absolutely stunning gothic vampy treasure, accessorise with big statement pendants for the ultimate Heirlooms vibe.

The Awakening has been freshly cleaned 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.
