Meet Bird of Paradise, she is an epic and unbelievably rare 70s cotton prairie dream dress by Samuel Sherman, who is an absolutely iconic designer of the time. This beauty is just phenomenal. She has the most amazing wallpaper stripe botanical floral print in an epic colourway, this is the kind of print which you only ever find on truly amazing vintage pieces, and it is truly rare to find prints as good as this. She has a stunning silhouette, with ruffle detailing on her bodice, sweet puff sleeves with a pleated cuff, a nipped in waist and button detailing at her bust. Honestly, this is up there with my all time best finds. I secretly don't want to sell her, but seeing her happy with one of you will make that so worth it.
