Autumn perfection, this soft cotton sateen 50s day dress in a fantastic chestnut print. Can't really get much better for this time of year! Soft beigey cream base colour. Fitted subtly drop waisted bodice with sleeveless fit and a high rounded neck. Natural waist nips in and there is a dropped waistband that finishes on the top of the hip. Full skirt. Side metal zipper to fasten side seam (unusually this fastens top down and finishes at the waistband. No labels.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.
SIZE
The dress is not labeled with a size but fits approx like an XS. For your best fit please refer to the measurements.
PLEASE NOTE: The side zip fastening is a quite short, so I would advice to err on the side of caution with the measurements and ideally leave an inch or so of room for movement and comfort.
Fit on model: as shown but way too small to fit comfortably
Chest: 33" (I would advice for 30-32")
Underbust: 30"
Waist: 26"
Dropped waist: 30"
Hip: free
Shoulder to waist: 14-14.5"
Shoulder to dropped waist: 16.5"
Length: 40.5"
(There is a very generous 4" hem on this)
CONDITION
Good condition. One small repair under the zipper at the waist, it's not really visible but this is a point of straining when getting into the dress as the dropped waistband is quite snug over your shoulders.
