Couldn't load pickup availability
Let’s all take a moment to admire the beauty that is this exquisite dream dress. She hails from the holy grail of vintage labels - Adini, in a shape that is forever copied by endless bohemian brands. Crafted in tissue thin Indian cotton gauze that has been hand blocked in the most divine magenta/maroon tones, she features the traditional Indian smock shape, full length oversized poet sleeves with elastic cuffs, beautiful beaded neck ties and a cascading full shorter midi length skirt.
This is a true collectors piece, these dresses are like a beautiful rare bird, rarely spied in the wild.
100% cotton. Slips on. Lined with cotton.
Made in India.
Condition: Good vintage condition with some wear consistent with age, as she is so light the gauze has been hand repaired in a few places, on each shoulder and in a few small spots on the back of the skirt. It appears she’s been taken up at some point as the bottom has been re-hemmed, so she is shorter than her usual length.
Price is adjusted accordingly.
Measurements:
Armpit to armpit - 44cm flat across,
Empire/High Waist - 42cm flat across,
Length - 100cm.
Tagged a vintage size Free Size, I would estimate this would be suitable for an S, around a modern 8/small 10 in AUS sizing - it is designed to be a loose fit and is quite narrow in the bust.
Please note - all vintage items are final sale. Each item we source is a genuine vintage piece and can be over 30-60 years old. They have been worn and loved in their many past lives and thus have imperfections and wear consistent with age. Please be assured we would never sell anything we wouldn't wear or adore ourselves, and all major flaws and issues will be listed in the product description.
