Ossie Clark for radley advice please

[Rachel1]

Hi all
I wonder if you could help me with your knowledge please. I have come across this dress in my quest for treasures . It’s immaculate and made of Rayon
Does anyone know anything about this design, value and where it would be best to sell it ? Any advice would be much appreciated
Many thanks in advance
Rachel

The dress looks 70s to me. There is a ton of info about Ossie Clark right on Wikipedia
The “Ossie Clark for Radley” was a diffusion line started in 1968.
We can’t provide advice about pricing here per our forum rules.
You could try selling it on eBay or social media.

We can't help with valuation (see forum rules)

It's a great dress and is from the 70s. I love the sheer sleeves.

I believe Ossie Clark for Radley is not quite so desirable as plain Ossie Clark, but they still do well (or they did, I haven't looked in the last couple of years).

One way to get a sense of how they sell, and for how much, is to look for sold listings. The easiest place to do this is eBay. Although they may sell differently on different platforms, it gives you a something to go on, because you can see what people have actually paid for similar dresses, and also whether any went unsold.

Do you already have experience in any selling venues? They all have pros and cons so where best to sell is perhaps too broad a question.

Some venues only really work if you approach them as ongoing project rather than a one off sale.
