A whimsical little '50s day dress, perfect for warm days! This has been homemade from stiff, printed cotton. The print is very mid-century in style and features a vibrant blue, pink and green stripe and floral design. The dress itself has been tailored beautifully, with a wide neckline, nipped-in waist and full skirt. There are two full pockets to the side of each hip, as well as a matching belt. It buttons down the entire front with blue marbled buttons and hook and eyes.
Condition: Some very very slight fading and discolouration to the inside neckline, but nothing major.

Vintage clothing is often homemade and/or follows a very different size guide to modern-day clothing. Please ensure you check the measurements carefully on the product description before making your order. We use a rough sizing guide based on waist sizing:
XS | Waist 22"- 25"
S | Waist 26"- 27"
M | Waist 28"- 30"
L | Waist 31"- 32"
XL | Waist 33"- plus
Please do not take the size guide as gospel as the size stated here may not be the size you would normally buy. It is very important to know your bust, waist and hip sizing ahead of purchase.
