Description

An artist turned this classic 1960s green and silver brocade dress into something special by adding a painting of portions of a horse’s muscle anatomy to the skirt. The horse’s tail even curves around to the back panel, and the original matching belt is included! The painting is signed and dated (2012), but I was unable to read the signature. The size tag reads 14, and I believe that this dress would best fit a modern small, but please refer to the approximate flat lay measurements below. Pit to pit: 19in Waist: 13.5in Hips: 20in Length: 39in The belt measures approximately 26.5in to 28.5in from the shortest to longest notches and is just under 1.25in wide. The buckle is app. 1 3/4in tall by 2 1/8in wide. This dress is in good vintage condition. I added a hook to the top of the zipper and there are some lightened areas throughout the skirt, primarily under the horse. These may have been added by the artist, and I don’t believe that they detract from the overall appearance. There is some stress to the zipper fabric at the waist, but the area is currently secure and could be worn as-is. There is also an occasional pull/run (one pictured for reference), some minor wear to the belt, and a faint vintage/storage scent is present, but I don’t believe it to be overpowering. Please note: I try to be thorough in my listings and believe that most issues are described. However, it is possible that I may have missed some minor ones. Let me know if you have any questions!
