This original vintage bright red floral dress is at least 50 years young. Quality craftmanship and style is reflected in its origins. The original owner is the wife of an ex-diplomat. Each garment from her collection was handcrafted in various countries, thereby treasured and saved and offering you a history of emotional attachment. Just like the adage 'loved clothing that lasts', this is a wonderful piece of fashion history in immaculate condition.

Easy to wash and wear it's a piece that dress flatters the body looks great with flats in summer or boots in winter!

Please note the vibrant colour of this wonderful piece was very difficult to photograph and we believe the fabric swatch (image #2) is the most accurate representation of the true colour.
