Switcheroo | Vintage 1980s 1990s Red white polka dot Sheath dress with Artistic scarf-ties
The story:
The front of this dress seems simple enough - 1980s Square-neck sleeveless red & white polka dot dress. Cute enough on its own.
But now, take a look at the back! We spent quite some (happy) time thinking how we could use the 2 large scarf-ties (attached) most effectively.
We came out with 3 ways, but perhaps you could think of more ;)
Pinned?: No. But it was belted to show how it looks when worn with one.
Measurements:
All measurements are taken with the garment laid flat.
Please DOUBLE the measurements provided to get the approximate circumference measurements.
Alternatively, you can take a piece of your own clothing, lay it flat, measure it and make a comparison.
