This sweet day or party dress is being offered at a bargain price due to two mended flaws.
Cotton gingham-check with a full floral-lace overlay. The underskirt has a hem ruffle, neckline and armscyes are trimmed in tiny thread "balls," the waist is fitted and seamed, and there's a side metal zipper. There are belt loops, but original belt is missing. The fabric one shown will be included. Skirt is full, but not a circle; shown with a narrow crinoline; can be worn with a fuller one or without one.
The label, Ketti Sub-Teen, is one I've never seen before.
CONDITION: Very good. The under-dress is sturdy, with no flaws. No stains, rips, or flaws other than as noted. The ball trim has some age discoloration, but since this is consistent and doesn't show much in normal lighting, it doesn't detract. The mended items are:
1) The balls under the armpits were fraying badly, so I removed them. With an area prone to rubbing, it didn't make sense to have them there to begin with.
2) There were two splits in the lace, now repaired. The longer one, about 4 1/2" is pictured. I did the repair, but unless I hunt for it, I can't find it. The other is about 1 1/2" long, and I honestly can't find it. These repairs aren't noticeable, but are factored into the price.
Has been freshly laundered.
SIZE: Estimated "best fit" for a 2 or 4. Shown on a size XS/Small manni and was a nice fit. Garment dimensions below; we recommend you compare them to a similar dress you own that fits you well. There's no stretch, so please leave fit ease.
