1970's handmade royal purple velvet maxi dress with floral jacquard sleeves and lace trim. Balloon sleeves. Zip-up back (zipper works fine, dress is just too small for dress form). Price reflects condition.

☼ Condition: there is color bleed onto the lace trim, it was hard to photograph and somewhat hard to see in real life, but if you know what to look for you'll notice that the lace is warm/purple hued. Then the garment's left sleeve, has what I believe is dye/color loss. If you examine the photos you'll see that there is patchy grey areas, it's not stained, it's just where the undyed fabric is.

You could attempt to redye that sleeve and someone could probably remove the lace and remove the color bleed and then reattach, and it would make such a stunning piece! Or you could leave as-is, they're really not end of the world issues and dress is still wearable!
