Meet Pearlfisher, she is a stunning and rare 1970s mexican dream dress by Rosa Mexicana, beautifully crafted in metres upon metres of the finest pintuck cotton. This is one of the best mexican dresses I have ever seen, and I feel so lucky to be the one to share her with the world. Like all 1970s mexican dresses, she is dripping in details and is a true high end treasure, but I have to say this is definitely premium to others I have seen. She has an amazing victoriana silhouette, with high collar, frilled yoke, deep cuffed sleeves, nipped in waist and has a full skirt with flounce. She is adorned in the most beautiful sweet lace trims and is emblazoned in stunning hand embroidered floral motifs. The hours of work that must have gone into this beauty is insane, we're talking well over 24 hours, which shows how full of skilled craftmanship she is. She is crafted in a creamy tone which has a very subtle dusky rose touch, and she truly is one of the best pieces to have graced my rails..

The Pearlfisher has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear. She has one light faint mark on her skirt, this is small and very unnoticeable, does not detract. See last photo.
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.
