1970s Halston Rich Purple Velvet Deep Plunge Dress designer-fendi The occasional but of sheen

The occasional but of sheen to the fabric here and there from it being cleaned and pressed over the years but nothing that really takes away from the dress or would be considered anything but normal vintage wear and patina

To own a piece of couture Balenciaga is truly to own a piece of fashion history and his pieces were worn by starlets and society girls

The elastic waist and easy cut will allow it to fit a variety of sizes

Bust: approx 16

1970s Halston Rich Purple Velvet Deep Plunge Dress designer-fendi The occasional but of sheenThis is the secind time I have had a version of this dress in the shop and I think it feels even more relevant this time. Velvet is a fabric that tends to wane in and out of fashion and right now it is having a strong revival. I feel like so many of the modern pieces I am seeing on the runway could have very well been inspired by this exact dress too. This is a beautiful black label 1970s Halston made out of a luxurious, rich feeling purple velvet.
