1960s MARIANNE WENDT Floor Length Sheath Dress Traditional Weave Cranberry Red

Vintage 1960s Marianne Wendt, Santiago Chile, floor-length, empire waist sheath dress in a cranberry-red handmade fabric (feels like linen/blend) sheath dress with white traditional embroidery detail and fully lined in a bright red sanity silk rayon. One side kick vent, sleeveless, zips from bum to nape with a metal Dobman zipper. Comes with a matching belt. There are no belt loops on the dress, so the belt can be placed wherever it fits best on you, or not worn at all. It also comes with a matching woven rope textile, pictured here as a bolo. Excellent vintage condition, light wear, faint tiny fade spot about 3 inches below empire waist, otherwise no flaws.
