Original 1970s Vintage Diana Warren Floral Tiered Maxi Dress Size 12
An exceptional vintage statement piece by Diana Warren of Blackpool, capturing the bold, romantic glamour of late 1970s occasionwear with a truly unforgettable silhouette. This dress is all about impact — from the moment you see it, the vibrant explosion of colour draws you in. Layers of sheer chiffon are richly printed in vivid tones of orange, turquoise, green, purple, pink and yellow, creating a painterly floral effect that feels both whimsical and dramatic. The contrast between the bright golden base and the multi-tonal overlays gives the piece incredible depth and movement. The bodice features a flattering V-neckline with a modesty panel, framed by soft sheer sleeves that add balance and elegance. A ruched waistband enhances the shape, finished with a striking corsage detail at the centre — a beautiful focal point that elevates the entire look. The skirt is where this piece truly comes to life. Fully tiered with cascading layers of chiffon, it moves beautifully with every step, while the structured netting beneath ensures the dress holds its voluminous, theatrical silhouette. It has that rare combination of floaty softness and sculptural presence — exactly what you want from a standout vintage occasion dress. This is not a wallflower piece — it’s made for special moments, from vintage events to summer weddings or anyone wanting something genuinely unique and unforgettable. In very good vintage condition with only light signs of wear consistent with age.

MEASURED & READY TO WEAR
Carefully measured, described and prepared — no surprises.
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.
