Mara | Vintage 1950s/1960s mod Scalloped textured print Vermillion red Cocktail dress

The story:

Don't you just love how vintage has so many options for everyone. Elegant cocktails. Flirty date nights. Sexy party dos. Presentable meet-the-parents. Casual funky. MTV-ready. It truly had everything. 

This bright red beauty we love for its simple yet elegant and pretty modern silhouette. 

Check out the unique textured fabric. And the stylish darts which slims down the silhouette and makes it a simple one-piece for cocktails. Something that will impress, make an entrance yet doesn't go too flamboyant. We like that it's short so you could totally wear it for a cocktail or a wedding party. 

Pop on a belt to tone it down or a brooch to class it up. Would even go well with a fascinator for race day too! 

Metal zipper yay too :)
