What kind of print is on this British Boutique Movement (?) Dress?

[northstarvintage]

Hi everyone!

I have tried doing a google search for "Barclay Square" but it's tough, because it's fairly common.

So....am I right for getting a British Boutique Movement vibe from this dress? Or at least that is was inspired by the British Boutique Movement? Or is it more from the Gunne Sax end of the spectrum?

And what about the print of the fabric? What is the inspiration? All I can think is that it's folk-y. And that's not very good.

Finally - early 70's?

Many thanks!

The colors and the stylized nature of the trees looks Persian to me. Where's Lin?? She'll know.

peasant and bohemian (boho) are the first ones to pop into my mind...and isn't the yellow and blue a French country thing??

doesnt hit me as a brit movement..more peasant/folksy/germanic? harvest festival...

"Renaissance Fair" pops into mind for me at first... and I only vaguely know what those are. It does remind me a bit of those early 70's layered dresses I saw in London a lot... but it's so bright!
