The story:
This dress has such a cute halter silhouette! Loving how it cuts in at the shoulders and yet has a neat little collar that is just that little bit erhem sexy. ;)
The red piping on this little beauty is really well-done. It somehow ties the fun pink carnation (how often do you get that? ;) print together. And the pink floral buttons are in such good condition and compliments the dress so well!
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: S - M
Shoulders: Free as it is a halter/cut-in style.
Bust: Up to 18in
Waist: Up to 13in (Fixed waist. We wouldn't recommended wearing it too tight. Just body-skimming would be fabulous. Has belt loops so you can cinch it even tighter if you need to.)
Top Length: 16in
Total Length: 39in
Hips: Free
Armhole: Approx 9.5in
Material: Not stated but seems like a cotton mix.
Origin: U.S.A
Tag: None. Could be home-made!
Lining: Unlined.
Transparency: Seems opaque, but as with most vintage garments, a slip will help to keep things decent ;)
Condition: Very good. 1st button is missing. But we can shift the last button on the skirt up for you if you like! Just leave us a note when you checkout ;) A couple of seams at the darts at the waist are a little weaker but can be easily reinforced or as long as you don't stretch them too much, no issues there. Doesn't affect how it wears at all!
