Vintage 1960s Black crepe shift cocktail dress with velvet and black beaded decoration, Made by Debenham & Freebody for Appointment to the Queen of England. A very good makers and superb quality.

• Metal zipper fastening at back.
• Short cap sleeves.
• The velvet is super silky lush
• Fully lined
• Shoulder bra strap holders with poppers
• Hand-beaded details in between the velvet and crepe panels at top and bottom with a zig-zag pattern border

MEASURES laid flat edge to edge:

• Bust: 44”
• Hip: 44"
• Length: 42” 

CONDITION: Overall excellent condition. The only thing I can see is that the yolk lining reveals itself at the neckline slightly and has a couple of threads poking up, but it may sit better when it's on an actual person instead of a slippery mannequin. See pic. The lining appears to be intact, I will probably snip those threads off and add a few more stitches to make certain nothing is loose.
