Itti Bitti Yellow Polka Dot | Mustard yellow Vintage 1950s day dress

The story:

Mustard yellow and black polka dots. Not exactly the polka-dotted-bikini but we absolutely love the vintage 50s day dress silhouette. 

In its day we could imagine it paired with a black pillbox hat, short nude velvet-trimmed suede gloves, black T-strap heels and a shiny little patent box-bag. Today, it could go young and preppy, or older and elegant but always happy. Happy :)
