Meet Mai, she is a super beautiful and super rare late 1960s bohemian cotton dream, made in Thailand. Vintage Asian made dresses are always superior in the textiles department, and Mai is a perfect example of such. She has the most amazing mythical bird print, a fully hand patchworked skirt, beautiful pintucking at her bodice and delightful trims. She has been crafted to an incredible standard, and the quality in this beauty really is insane. She has a beautiful shape with cropped kimono sleeves, a square neckline and a full skirt. It actually is so hard to capture the true beauty of Mai in photographs, but I promise, wherever she is headed, she will be loved and treasured. She is probably the most precious black dress I have sourced to date, and I know you will never ever find another Mai.
