THE MINT CHEESECLOTH

Original 1970s maxi dress in peasant prairie styling.

The 1970s saw a huge a surge in counterculture and bohemian fashioned folk looking to alternatives to the mainstream fashion offerings. These prairie styles were conceived in natural fabrics such as cotton and cheesecloth and evoked a historical flavour of the 19th Century.
