Taz | Vintage 1980s rope braid accent dress
The 80s had some really cool stuff: music, movies, colors (oh neon!) and silhouettes.
Though shoulder pads didn’t really worked for me (I’m broad shouldered enough as it is and it didn’t help with my instrument-playing 😆), we think they did have their place in fashion history.
And also the bold and large accents which were such a staple of those times.
We love the rope/braid accent around the neck that contrasts nicely with the small fl’oral print. Has shoulder pads that can be removed as desired.
Buttons and zips up at the back.
*Please not slightly color runs in some parts of the dress though it doesn’t show much due to the small, busy print.
