This listing is for a
Vintage 1960's Strapless EMIL OTTO Purple/Lilac Ombre gown.
The bodice is done in a series of pleats that go from dark to pale lilac and cross the bust, forming a V shape that accents the decolletage (neckline and shoulders).  A wasp waist then falls into folds of ombre chiffon, creating a sexy silhouette.  The gown has a full lining under the chiffon.
The dress has a side zipper with hooks/eyes to mask the zipper.  The gown is in excellent condition and has not been dry cleaned.  Please note that there are 4 snaps (see photo) sewn into the inside of the gown at the bust - it appears that there was an attachment  (probably a matching chiffon scarf that went over one shoulder or wrapped around).  There is nothing that came with the gown so this piece is long gone.
No stains/tears/holes/odors.
We estimate that this gown is a size 2-4 based on the mannequin.  The waist is verrrry tiny! The mannequin is usually a perfect size 4 and it was a tight squeeze to zip up the gown.  Please go by the measurements below:
Measurements
Bust: 34"
Waist: 24"
Hips: 34"
Length from waist: The front is shorter than the back of the gown:
Front:  40"   Back:  43 1/2"
