I am unable to find a lot about this label, other than it is British. From the dresses I have seen to date it seems that they were a rival of Horrockses Fashions, and certainly a lot of their lines had a similar look. The Linzi Line advertised extensively in women's and fashion magazine of the period, targeting mainly the younger woman. All of their dresses are of high quality, both in fabric and design. And this one is no exception.
Condition
This dress is in excellent condition for its age. No notable flaws that I can see. The dress might need a hook and eye above the zipper to secure. Cleaned and ready to wear. Please drop us a line if your require additional information about this listing.
