Meet Raven, she is a beautiful 1970s gothic crushed velvet midi dress. Raven has the most beautiful mutton sleeves, high collar and contrasting white broderie anglaise frills. She is a very wearable addition to Pansy Heirlooms.. and could easily be dressed up or down. She would look great with boots, tights and a chunky belt!
This girl would work on UK sizes 10/12 best. She does have slight give.
Bust - up to 38"
Waist - 31"
Length - 42.5"
For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6.
The Raven 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.
ALL vintage velvet comes with small signs of wear to the pile of the fabric. This is part of the charm.
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.
