Dreamy 1960s Unlabeled Strapless Black Dress w Front Pink Panel & Floral Embroidery Purples Each of these created panelsThe beautiful 1960s strapless dress is a gorgeous example of a fabulous unlabeled dress from this time period. The main portion of the dress is black and then it has a wide panel in a dusty pink running down the full front. Both colours were then covered in a floral embroidery and this embroidery is scattered over the entire dress. I love the contrast and visual interest that this creates. The floral design has been kept in the same colour palette so
