Deadstock 1960s little black dress, never worn and still sporting its original tag. Made in the USA by Arkay with an ILGWU union label. Straight cut shift style is easy to wear. The fabric is a rich black textured jacquard weave with a tone-on-tone diamond pattern. The sleeveless bodice is shaped with bust darts. Two rows of chunky decorative buttons down the front give it that unmistakable mod-era attitude. Flattering side-waist gathers ease the transition to the skirt, and a back metal zipper closes the look cleanly. This is where you have your Mad Men moment, go to a cocktail party, or start building a serious vintage wardrobe. Pairs beautifully with kitten heels, a structured clutch, and a bold lip. MATERIAL Not labeled — fabric has a textured jacquard-style weave, no stretch CARE Dry clean recommended. TAG SIZE vintage 16 – fits like a modern 10 or so Vintage sizing is different!
