Meet Seashell, she is a beautiful and super rare 1970s natural raw calico cotton prairie dream dress by John Marks. This beauty is divine and is an absolute bohemian treasure. She has an amazing silhouette with an open square neckline, huge billowing sleeves, a nipped in waist and a long flowing tiered skirt. She is adorned in the most wonderful cotton lace trim panels and has a button placket closure to her front. Beauties like Seashell truly are rare and don't come up often. I cannot wait to see where she is headed today..

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.
