I love a good mid century floral! This one strikes me as a particularly moody print- a lightweight shantung feel with abstract yellow and white roses floating on a background of black. I cannot tell if it is silk or possibly rayon. The little details on this dress really make it special- like the gathered detailing at the bust, small underarm gussets for more ease of movement, and cute little half-bow details on the bust.

This dress is in good condition with that slight indication of age, but with no real flaws to note. The length seems to have been lifted at some point, as there is a good 4" hem all around that could be taken out to elongate the dress if desired. The bodice down to about mid-hip area are lined, and the dress closes with a metal zipper up the back and hook and eye at the neck.

There are no tags inside. I think the size would best fit a modern sm-medium but please check the measurements below. These were taken when laid flat, so please double all except length and remember to allow for ease when comparing to your measurements. :)

Chest: 19"

Waist: 14"

Hip: 20", hangs free-er just past hips

Length: 42"

There is no stretch to this material.
