1960's A-line shift dress with a clean, structured form and a high neckline. The shape skims the body without a defined waist, which is typical of mid-century mod fashion. Cap sleeves—short and structured, extending just over the shoulders. Metallic brocade with a silver or icy blue tone and a raised, ornate paisley and baroque-inspired pattern. The reflective finish gives it an elegant, formal appearance. Mid-thigh to above-the-knee, which reinforces the vintage mod style. The use of metallic fabric was very popular during that era for holiday and evening wear. T
