1960s Rare Laura Ashley Corduroy Dress w/ Caplet- S/M
Stunning, rare, early Laura Ashley dress from the 1960s. Beautiful milk chocolate, wider whale corduroy, with a matching caplet. Empire waist and tiered cape is reminiscent of a regency or mid 1800s fashion. Slightly heavier weight makes it a wonderful ensemble for winter and spring! Can be worn with or without the caplet, of course. Laura Ashley and her husband had a textile business before starting to produce dresses in the 1960s in Whales. This is one of those inaugural pieces.
Overall in excellent condition with very light wear. Shown in photos.
