A vintage 1980s Paragi dress with a quietly dramatic presence. The fitted bodice is built from carefully layered fabric, drawing the eye inward before flowing beautifully into softer movement below. Black and white polka dots scatter across the surface, giving the piece depth without overpowering its shape.
The sweetheart neckline sits gently across the chest, framed by soft sleeves that can be worn on or off the shoulder, shifting the mood from formal to more undone. At the waist, gathered detailing falls into a draped swag of fabric, adding weight and motion through the midi-length skirt.
Light, floaty, and deliberate in its construction — a dress that feels suited to windswept paths, lingering glances, and evenings that stretch on longer than planned.
I’d always wondered how they got those perfect column dresses to look so perfectly smooth - and now I know! Amazing dress, lovely colour and it arrived quickly.
The dress was in the same condition as the picture. It was lovely. I bought it knowing it was a size up from my usual size. I will alter it to fit me better. But I loved the design so much.
Beautiful vintage dress in perfect condition, perfect fit, speedy delivery. Sweets and sticker included in my parcel upon delivery was a lovely suprise.
Gorgeous dress! Really happy with it. Beautifully packaged. Delivery a little slow but worth the wait. I'll definitely buy from Violet Vintage again and highly recommend
