1960s Clevaline Cotton Abstract Pink and White Dress

About the Item

This is a great 1960s dress from upmarket British label Clevaline. We have often seen this label together with a Harrods retail label who only sold the very best fashion lines during the 50s and 60s. This is a delightful textured cotton dress in what can only be described as a giant print version of the video game Tetris! It is in a wonderful shade of baby pink and soft white. The dress is a classic A-line shift design with a scoop neck, wide shoulder bands and Princess seams. There is a little scalloped detail on the collar bone and two fabric covered buttons for decoration. The dress has two concealed front pockets that follow the lines of the Princess seams. This piece fastens at the back with the original concealed metal zip. The dress is fully lined in a quality acetate with a deep bottom hem allowance. This is such a timeless example of fashion from the era which is in excellent vintage condition with no faults of any note. It can be dressed up or down and accessorised with a cardigan or jacket on chillier days. It will fit up to a UK size 10, US size 6. MEASUREMENTS: Bust - 36 in (91.4 cm) Waist - 30 in (76.2 cm) Hip - 35 in (88.9 cm) Length - 37.5 in (95.2 cm) Shoulders - 15.5 in (39.4 cm)

  • 1950s Carlye Cream Cotton Knife Pleat Dress
    By Carlye
    Located in London, GB
    A classic example of good quality American day wear. We love this label - Carlye pieces just ooze refinment. This creamy beige cotton knife pleat dress has an elegent scoop neck augmented with 2 pearlescent buttons. These fasten on the shoulders and are purely decorative. There is an additional ochre coloured over-stitched ziz-zag pattern on the neckline. The dress has an interesting and continuous arrangement of knife pleats both on the bodice and the skirt. The knife pleats on the bodice are formed on an additional panel which you can pass your hand through. The panel is attached at the waist and the neckline and this feature was to ensure that the pleats align closely with that of the skirt when wearing. The bodice is lined in the same fine cotton fabric whilst the skirt is unlined. There is a side pocket just below the original metal zip at the side. The condition is excellent - we have noticed one small brown faded mark very close to the waistband; barely noticeable and we inspected a few times before seeing this. This would also be covered by any belt. Best fit for UK size 8-10, US size 4-6 and of smaller stature as Carlye was a petite range brand. The Carlye Dress Corporation was formed in 1938 in St. Louis, Missouri. Owned by Corinne Fuller Glaser, Carlye went on to become one of the great dress houses in St. Louis, a city renowned for its 'junior wear' or in more modern terms - petite sizes fashion. Clothing manufacturing giant Leslie Fay...
