UNIQUE 1970s Vintage Yolanda Originals Black Maxi Mexican Dress with Exaggerated Embroidered Angel Sleeves - Sm

$139.00

A striking and unique 70s (possibly late 60s) vintage dark maxi dress. The exaggerated angel sleeves on this piece are a SHOW STOPPER! The added embroidery just gives that perfect bit of flare. The fabric says its 100% algodon (aka cotton) and is heavy with no give. Zips up the back with a metal zipper. Label is for Yolanda and says vintage size 10. Would likely best fit a modern Small. For reference model is modern size 4/6.

Approximate Measurements (see flat lay) :

Bust: 33 inches, but about 34 inches if you account for the darting - model is 34b and it fit well.

Waist: about 29 inches, please note this sits higher then the natural waist. See flat photo with measurements as well as where this sits on model (more like under bust).

Hips: 38 inches

Length: 59 inches from shoulder, down

Sleeve Length: 20 inches

Good vintage condition - Some overall wear to fabric with some significant color fade to the what I presume was once the black color of the dress. To my eye the color fade is more obvious in person than it shows in the photos with model (more like what presents in the close ups). Some spots that did not come out with dry cleaning. Some wear spots that consist of small holes and pulls. Some wear to the inner seam allotments. There are belt loops, but no belt. Minor wear and color fade to embroidery as well. Metal zipper does work, but sometimes gets sticky and needs a forceful tug.

All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment.
