The understated and simplistic beauty of these 1980s Laura Ashley sailor dresses is unbeatable, they're so of the time, and something Lady Diana would have of course worn. Today they're highly collectible due to their wearability and classic style, they are the kind of dress which instantly looks chic. This beauty is in a gorgeous navy shade, with oversized sailor collar and beautiful gold buttons. She has a loose cut, with flowing skirt and puff sleeves, and is perfect for wearing on repeat for all occasions, she is the perfect archive dress.

Measures to approx UK size 8/10/12 depending on her desired fit.

Bust - up to 37"

Waist - 32" -  is supposed to be loose.

Length - 48"

 For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. 

She has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear. This dress has clearly been a firm favourite in her past life, you can tell she has been worn, but this only adds to the charm. She has very slight fade around where her buttons are, but again this doesn't detract. This has been heavily reflected in her price.

 This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.
