1970s Miss Elliette Pleated Chiffon and Lace Dress, S

Fabricated in a back pleated poly chiffon

Fulled lined in a synthetic acetate blend except for the sleeves which are unlined.

Trimmed in a black and burgundy lace, giving it an “antique” look. (The lace is not faded, it it woven in 2 colors to give it that look. See photos)

Hig lace trimmed neck

Full length sheer sleeves with lace cuffs and a single covered button at the wrist

Black satin ribbon at the waist with a bow at center front.

Fastens down center back with a Scovil coil zipper and hooks and thread loops at the neck and waist.

Wide lace band along the sweep.
