1970's Lilac Chiffon Cottagecore Peasant Maxi Dress | Vintage Bridesmaid Dress

Think 70s bridesmaid. So cute this Empire Waist Babydoll Chiffon Peasant Maxi Dress with Dark Purple Ribbon woven through Embroidered Floral Trim. Love the chiffon sleeves with gathered cuffs!

*Empire waist/Babydoll silhouette
*Purple velvet and embroidered floral mandarin collar and trim at waist and sleeves
*Chiffon outer fabric
*Sheer sleeves with gathers at wrists and snaps to keep at the wrists.
*Tons of gathers at top of skirt
*Look closely and you will see the trim is actually a velvet ribbon that is woven in and between the embroidered flowers!
*Fully lined bodice and skirt. Sleeves are not lined.
*Zips up the rear with a metal zipper. Hook and eye at top of zipper.

The outer fabric is sheer chiffon, likely synthetic, not silk. The lining, also synthetic, is quite stiff.

Condition - Has issues, please scroll around all photos. Some yellowing and fading and water marks. Also, please note the lining is rather stiff and is wrinkled, it will need a good steam before the dress is worn. You can see the wrinkles of the lining through the semi-sheer outer fabric, especially in the bodice. Not photographed are a rust spot on the right front of the skirt and black mark on front bottom near hem, both can be seen in some of the images. 

Measurements:
Bust 34"
Ribs 30" (Measurement taken along purple trim where the bodice is attached to the skirt.)
Waist 30+"
Hips free
