Finding the perfect little fifties printed sun dress in that crisp 50s cotton is such a treat. This little beauty is done in delicious summer shades of white and yellow anchored with a fine black line that allows the pattern on the fabric to really pop. The combination of sunny yellows and white would be the perfect choice for a hot summer day. The skirt is quite full with beautiful little gathered pleats through the waist to give it that fullness. You can wear it on its own or add a little shape and volume as I have here by putting a light crinoline underneath. The top is kept simple with a cut that fits to a tee. The neckline is cut straight across and the shoulders straps create a great angular shape. It is absolutely adorable. Excellent condition

The dress is unlined and closes with a back painted metal zipper. It does close fully when on - it was just too small on the mannequin to do so. Hand finished. It was styled over a very small, light crinoline that is not included.
