Moire Moi Retro | Vintage 1960s Black white Stripes all ways Shirtwaist Dress
The story:
You know how they tell you not to wear prints with thin stripes on TV? Well, this is one awesome dress you shouldn't wear if you're going to be on screen - but you could certainly wear the heck out of it off screen!
Look at it from afar and there's a bigger pattern amidst the vertical and diagonal stripes.
Pinned?:
No. But it was belted to show how it looks when worn with one. Please refer to the details below for exact measurements.
