Description: VINTAGE COTTON FROCK ALINE MINI DRESS. CORSET STYLE BODICE WITH WIDE SHOULDER STRAPS. COTTON FABRIC WITH BICYCLE PRINT. c1980s, UNLINED, MADE IN USA 🇺🇸 Please note: a peek-a-boo crinoline was used for some of the photography purposes, but is not included. (They can be found here on eBay from a variety of sellers). Refer to photos that indicate when it is used, (with and without). SIZE- labeled a vintage size 4, which is closer to a modern size 2. (photographed on my modern size 2 dress form). size is a guesstimate only- BEST TO REFER TO MEASUREMENTS FOR A MORE ACCURATE FIT: Bust 30-33” (side seam to side seam, taken flat, then stretched slightly) waist 28 (top waist seam, bottom waist panel seam is 26-27) bodice length 14.5 skirt length 17 total length 31.5 sweep 136 CONDITION: FRESHLY HAND WASHED AND STEAMED. STRONG AND WEARABLE VINTAGE CONDITION. NOTABLE ISSUES: The faintest yellow hue right on top of the underarm seam line, I wasn’t able to capture it in a photo because it’s so faint, but was noted upon inspection-Nothing that detracts from the beauty of the dress. I found a tiny thread pull on the bodice, approx 1/2” Shipped with USPS priority mail. TO HELP DETERMINE YOUR FIT PRIOR TO PURCHASING: 1) OUR MEASUREMENTS: In sewing, ‘ease’ is the amount of room a garment allows the wearer beyond the measurements of their actual body. I provide measurements of my items (un-stretched) for you, however, it is suggested to add ease for comfort. Fitting ease will allow you to be able to breathe, move your arms, bend your elbows, sit, walk, and even dance! Ease varies depending on what part of the body you are clothing, but generally it is between ½”-2”. If you want your garment to be a ‘pin-up’ tight fit, make sure it’s close to your own body measurements, adding 1 or 2 inches in the bust and hip areas. If you want it to fit loosely, add more room as needed. 2) YOUR MEASUREMENTS: We always suggest you use the measurements of your own body to help with the accuracy of how the garment will fit. If you don’t have a measuring tape, use a ruler to measure a similar garment that fits you well. Follow our measuring guide pictures to compare our sizing with your measurements. My garments are photographed on a size 2 dress form, (measurements 32x25x34). The measurements here are recorded with the item flat, and un-stretched. MORE LOVELY FASHIONS & UNIQUE ITEMS IN MY SHOP!
