60s/70s Gown in Peach Chiffon by Mike Benet Formals
This formal gown was worn, just once, for the Miss Georgia beauty pageant in the very early 1970s, it is from the late 1960s or early 70s.
- Flowing chiffon with intricately beaded and sequined empire bodice and spaghetti straps.
- Zips up the back with a top hook&eye.
- Matching scarf can be worn as a wrap, at your neck, in your hair, or however you choose.
- Well-made in the U.S.A.
- Fully lined, feels wonderful to wear.
- Color is a deep, true peach (see Pantone swatch, which is a good match).
