Vintage Dress: 1960s Mod Party Outfit



This is a fun vintage fashion look from the 1960's. A Mod silk dress in autumn colors is perfect for parties. Right about now most of us have quite a few events in our schedule, and maybe one or two should include some sort of great outfit like this.

This mid-1960s (based on the longer length) dress is couture quality. With an "I. Magnin" label to validate this quality, it is of the lightest silk chiffon, edged in hand beaded collar and cuffs. This longer length can easily be taken up to a shorter hem, but I am listing it in that original length. It could also be belted, since it is a classic 'shift' silhouette.
