Vintage 1970s Handmade Velvet Chenille Revival Kaftan Dress

We are smitten beyond words by this find. This 1970s Revival era dress is a masterclass in bohemian style. The thick velvet towelling is presented in burnt orange, and the dress features some intricate hand-stitched floral embroidery and delicate beading across the square neckline. The construction is very unique, with shawl-style sleeves that are open underneath for an airy, free-flowing feel - absolutely perfect for the coming summer months or a holiday abroad. The piece if finished with a lovely fringe along the hem and sleeve edges, and honestly, this dress just perfectly captures the eclectic artisanal spirit of the 1970s.
