More about this Item

There is something truly magical about a well-preserved piece of 1970s lace, and this dress is no exception. This ivory beauty features a stunningly heavy Guipure (or Venice style) lace overlay in a geometric floral pattern that gives it wonderful dimension and weight.

The silhouette is classic “Lady Mod”—it fits through the bodice and gently flares, creating a flattering A-line shape. The details are what really set this apart: a sharp, exaggerated dagger collar that frames the face perfectly and three decorative white globe buttons at the neckline for a touch of sculptural whimsy.

It is fully lined with a soft, cream-colored nylon tricot for comfort and modesty, though the sleeves remain sheer to show off the intricate lace detail. It zips up the back with a period-correct nylon zipper. This dress has been lovingly restored to its original ivory luster and is ready for its next chapter. It would make a phenomenal alternative wedding dress, a reception “change-out” piece, or a standout cocktail dress for the vintage purist.

Measurements & Fit: Based on measurements, this fits like a modern Size 4/6 (Small). Please check measurements below for the perfect fit:

Bust: 34 inches (doubled from 17″ flat)
Waist: 29 inches (doubled from 14.5″ flat)
Hips: 36 inches (doubled from 18″ flat)
Total Length: 36 inches
Sleeve Length: Approx. 23 inches

Condition: Great vintage condition. This piece has been freshly laundered. There is an almost imperceptible, very faint reddish/pinkish tint near the bottom hem on the right side and a tiny mark on the lace (see photos). These are only visible under very close inspection and do not detract from the beauty of the garment.
