Simply Red | Vintage Homemade Handmade pinstripe Nautical wide-collar Red Dress
The story:
Who says vintage nautical has to be mainly blue and white? What about a totally rad red one? ;)
This awesome handmade pin-striped red dress with its broad pleats and big but flattering collar is easy to wear and great perfect with sandals, heels or boots!
Popover style. No zips or buttons. Closes with a hook/eye at the side (see last photo),but there is sufficient fabric-overlap to keep all the important bits inside ;)
*Black tank-top inside not included.
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.
Approx. Size: M - L
Shoulders: Approximately 14-15in (shoulder seams start from the neck so we did a rough gauge of where shoulders would fall)
Bust: Up to 20in
Waist: Up to 15in (Fixed waist.)
Top Length: 18in
Total Length: 45in
Sleeves: 15in (measured from the neck to cuff)
Armhole: Approximately 8.5in
Cuff: 7in
Material: Not stated but seems like a cotton mix.
Origin: U.S.A.
Tag: None.
Lining: Unlined.
Transparency: Seems opaque but as with most vintage items, a slip will help to keep things decent ;). Also it is rather deep/wide at the V-part of the bust thus a tank-top or half slip inside would make sense.
Condition: Excellent.
