Olive Green Textured Shift Dress with Asymmetric Collar
Sophistication doesn't always need to announce itself. This authentic vintage dress from the 1980s - 1990s understands restraint.
Crafted in olive green cotton blend easy care fabric with a subtle textured pattern throughout, the dress catches light quietly. The real design moment is at the neckline: an asymmetric collar detail wraps across one shoulder and fastens with a single button, creating architectural interest without fuss. It's the kind of detail that makes people look twice.
Long sleeves finish with button-tab cuffs, a tailored touch that adds polish. The fitted silhouette skims the body in a flattering shape and the centre back split for ease of movement. This cut works beautifully whether you carry more fullness through the bust and shoulders or through the hips and thighs, the straight lines will create elegant proportion.
Pair it with boots and a structured bag for work, or add statement earrings and heels for evening. The olive green works across seasons, equally at home with autumn tones or spring neutrals.
Timeless, wearable, endlessly versatile. The kind of dress that earns its place in your wardrobe.

DESIGNER INFORMATION: From the designers," This dress is the 'Mary-Jane' from our 'Ma Fetiche' Winter 2009 collection inspired by shoes. It included beautiful pieces with names like Brogues skirt, Stiletto strides, Slingback dress, Clog jacket, Loafer shorts & so on. and of course the Mary-Jane dress which came in olive & burgundy colourways. A lovely slightly quirky collection. Looking back it was kinda early 'Andy Warhol' culture! We hope it finds another good home & continues to be loved & enjoyed for many more years Jill Ange
