Ethereal 1970’s vintage dress..homemade..no labels.
Made entirely of ivory floral net lace..gorgeous lace with a fishnet pattern in the background..
The dress reminds me a lot of a Gunne Sax and may have been made with a Gunne pattern..
The ruffled shoulder flounce and high collar..
The pearl bridal buttons with elastic loops up the back..
So much like a Gunne!
A high collar with satin piping details..
Tailored bodice with gathered puff shoulder and tapered sleeves with snaps and piping at the wrist…
Grosgrain ribbon waist tape holds the perfect silhouette..
Full length maxi skirt with a beautiful sweep and ruffled lace hem..
The dress is completely unlined and sheer..
I decided to not pair it with an underslip, though I’m happy to help find something if requested..
There are a lot of directions one could go, part of the fun with this piece..
Wear it over jeans with a bikini top..Or a satin slip..
Maybe a contrasting color like peach..
I also recommend finding a belt or waist sash as the waist tape is visable through the lace..
The seamstress was quite talented and it’s very well made..
And absolutely beautiful!
