The Octopus Garden Vintage Handmade Dress and Beret in Brown Eyed Girl
£70.00
Welcome to our Handmade Collection!!
These are the cutest zip up mini dress and beret combos, inspired by Mary Quant and our desire not to waste a single scrap of gorgeous vintage fabric! The perfect outfit for groovy girls, taking you through from the warmest days to the chilliest autumn/winter. So adorable layered with your favourite shirt or roll neck, or just with some 60s boots in the spring/summer! And even comes with a matching handmade beret!!!
Each piece is made in England by Caitlin or our seamstress Helen, who has over 30 years experience in historical sewing!
Made from genuine 60s or 70s fabric, these dresses feature that classic mod shape (designed to be slightly looser so you can layer!) and a super flattering zip front with an O ring! For more pictures of fit and styling head over to our instagram @theoctopusgardenuk.
