Schooldays YippeeYay | Vintage 1950s 1960s Purple checkered dress with White double collar
The story:
Purple dresses that come with white contrasting collars. Hmm. Reminding us of old school uniforms and braided pigtails.
Has little button details at the sleeves too and slimming white lines going down the length of the entire dress.
Pinned?: No.

All measurements are taken with the garment laid flat.
Please DOUBLE the measurements provided to get the approximate circumference measurements.

Lining: Top unlined. Bottom lined.
Transparency: Seems opaque, but as with most vintage garments, appropriate inner wear will help to keep things decent ;)
Condition: Very good. Seams a little stretched at the underarms but still wearable. You could choose to strengthen them by running them through the sewing machine again, but we would leave that up to you as that could narrow the measurements slightly.
