Meet Bird of Paradise, she is a stunning and HOLY GRAIL RARE early 1970s prairie dream dress by one of my favourite and coveted boutique labels of the time Earlybird. I absolutely adore this one, she is what you call a true treasure to behold, and is one of the best Earlybird dresses I have sourced to date. She has an incredible silhouette with a button through bodice, puffed capped sleeves, empire waist and tiered skirt and is adorned in sweet lace trims. She has a beautiful green and navy mixed palette, with a beautiful floral print and is honestly a true treasure to behold. I really love this one, she is just wearable, timeless and beautiful, please give her the home she deserves.
This girl measures to approx UK size 8/10, could possibly work on a UK 6.
Bust - up to 34" - 35"

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.
