A genuine original late 1960s / early 1970s mod dress in iconic Crimplene fabric — vivid emerald green. Not a reproduction or later piece, but an authentic garment from the era when Crimplene dominated British fashion for its structure, durability, and distinctive silhouette.
The oversized pointed collar, clean A-line cut, and sculptural shape are textbook mod style. The fabric holds its architectural line perfectly, creating that sharp, graphic look so characteristic of the period. Crimplene dresses like this are highly collectible today for their unmistakable retro aesthetic and incredible condition longevity.
How to Style? Emerald green Crimplene with an oversized pointed collar — the graphic impact is immediate. White go-go boots or simple white flats to keep the colour front and centre; black pointed shoes for a sharper contrast. Hair in a neat fringe or sleekly back to show the collar in full.
No jewellery at the neckline, the collar owns that space. A small white or black bag. The green does everything else.
