This stunning vintage maxi is pure late-60s, early-70s magic: a floor-sweeping column of marigold yellow in a sturdy, smooth polyester knit, crowned with a sheer lace bodice overlay that is nothing short of spectacular.
The lace panel is densely patterned in a geometric star motif and edged all around with a delicate 3D daisy chain trim. The same trim frames the neckline and armholes, giving the entire bodice an almost folk-art, handcrafted quality. A sweet self-fabric bow tie sits at center front, and a row of tiny self-covered buttons traces the empire seam down to a center front slit, topped with a final button at the hem opening.
The silhouette is empire waist, sleeveless, with a column skirt that falls to a full 54", floor-length on most frames. The back closes with a discreet yellow zipper that disappears seamlessly into the lace.
The construction, the matching dyed zipper, the handmade-quality daisy trim, all point to a high-quality domestic or boutique-made piece from the height of the Boho Goddess era.
