About the Item

This vivacious, colourful dress was made in the 1970s by Peterson Maid. A floor-length piece, it is tailored to a classic 1970s silhouette with its flattering empire-line cut, V-neckline and wide waistband. The sheer crepe cloth is printed with bright pink, blue and purple florals which really stand out against the black background. The dress is fully lined in black satin. The original label reads “Peterson Maid of London” and “Made in England” in glittering silver thread. The size label states that it is a 38, a UK 12, and that this piece is made from 100% Nylon. Please double-check the measurements below as vintage sizes tend to run small - it is better suited to a UK size 10. This brand made high-end ready to wear dresses for the top department stores of the day and is in great vintage condition, with no issues. Our model is a UK 8-10 and 5ft 11in (180 cm) and this dress fit her well. MEASUREMENTS: BUST - 34 in. (86 cm) WAIST - 29 in. (74 cm) HIP - 42 in. (107 cm) LENGTH - 57 in. (145 cm)
