1960s Oscar de la Renta Velvet Dress
This beautiful dress in excellent condition is made in velvet and is an Oscar de la Renta design, but sadly I sold the jacket which had the label in it. However it does have the original Union Made label from the USA. The dress has a black bodice and the lower part is vibrant red yellow tan brown and black. An unusual feature of the dress is a small slit in the front of the hem. There are black loops ready for your own belt, a black patent belt would look great. The red glass necklace shown in the pic is not included in this sale.

1960s CRESTA Chiffon Dress in Brown and White
This gorgeous dress is an original 1960s chiffon dress made by CRESTA and is very sheer particularly on the sleeves which can be seen in pic three and above the chest. The dress is in excellent condition and is lined at the yoke with a flesh coloured silk in a V shape and from the waist to the hem it is lined in black silk. This dress is beautifully made with zip. The collar is a roll neck with three tiny hook and eyes. In my photographs I have used a full tulle petticoat which is not included in the sale and in fact is a little long for the dress and has probably bulked it out a little more than it would be if it was on the right sized person. The dress has been pinned to my model as she is smaller than the dress which is 14 UK. There are belt loops for you to add your belt of choice which is not supplied and would finish the look of the dress.
ACTUAL MEASUREMENTS
Bust 36 inches (92 cms)
Waist 30 inches (76 cms)
Length 39 inches (99 cms)
1960s Emerald Green Tent Dress in Wool
This unique dress is making a statement and is so unusual. I believe the dress has been home made in the 1960s and would be suitable for maternity too. The dress is fully lined has a good weight to it and is in great condition with a V neck. I can see this dressed up for that special occasion with a large brimmed hat in black or white or even emerald green and a pair of matching long close fitting gloves. For a more casual look you could add a pair of 60s boots and a pair of large clip on ear rings.

Antique Silver Sweetheart Brooch WW2 with Amethyst
This listing is for a lovely silver sweetheart brooch probably from WW2 or before marked 925 with an amethyst. The brooch measures 2.5 inches 6 cms and the brooch depicts a bird each side and their wings, which suggests this is an RAF brooch although I am unsure of its history. Sadly my pics do not show the brooch at its best as the silver is vibrant and not discoloured in any way as the pics suggest. The barrel clasp is in excellent order as is the brooch.
