Original 1960s Vintage Black Velvet Flocked Mini Dress Size 8/10

 

 

A beautifully made 1960s vintage cocktail dress, handcrafted with care and full of rich texture and subtle sparkle. This piece perfectly captures that late 60s shift into more playful, statement eveningwear while still keeping a clean, elegant silhouette. The dress features a classic high neckline and long sleeves, giving it that timeless, modest shape, balanced by the shorter mini length for a distinctly youthful and era-defining feel. The fabric is where it really shines — a deep black base overlaid with velvet flocked foliage, interwoven with shimmering blue lurex thread that catches the light beautifully with movement. Structured and non-stretch, it holds its shape well, creating a neat, tailored line through the body. An unusual and cleverly designed side fastening uses a series of small concealed velcro tabs, which remain completely hidden when worn while allowing for a smooth, uninterrupted finish across the silhouette. A striking and slightly unusual piece that feels both wearable and special — perfect for evening events, parties, or styled more casually with boots for a modern contrast. In very good vintage condition with only light signs of wear consistent with age.

    At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)

     

    We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture.  Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.

     

    We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
