Vargas Ochagavía was a Spanish haute couture firm made up by couturiers Jesús Vargas (1913-n.a.) and Emilio Ochagavía (1922-1996). The firm opened in 1946.
This is a stunning black lace evening dress made by Vargas Ochagavia for Debenhams and Freebody in the 50s or 60s.
Black chantilly lace over black rayon.
It has a high front with soft boned bodice and a low back with lace flounces down the back.
Fastens with a zip behind.
Flamenco style lace flutter short sleeves.
The dress is in excellent conditon with no flaws or alterations but there is a little fading to the front - it could easily be dyed.
I have photographed it on a UK 8 mannequin and it would fit a UK 10.
Bust measures 36 inches.
Length form underarm to hem measures 39 inches.

I am happy to post overseas.
