Meet Celestia, she is a stunning and RARE 1970s dress and waistcoat set by Phool, athough her waistcoat is unlabelled and I am unsure if they were sold as a co ord, they were worn by their original owner as a set, so I have decided to keep it that way. This is a really precious piece, Phool is one of the most collectible Indian dress labels of the late 60s early 70s. She is stunningly crafted in heaps of the most delicate hand block print Indian cotton gauze and is embellished with gold stamping. She has a smock silhouette with huge sweeping body and gorgeous billowing sleeves. Her fabric is vibrant and rich in colour, and she is a true bohemian beauty. This is a collectible piece of bohemian fashion history, and a true rare find. She is eternally stylish and truly stunning, I hope she heads to an amazing home.
This girl would work up to UK size 12/14 - dress is pretty much free fitting.

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.
