Absolutely stunning 50s sun dress in a most wonderful huge butterfly print. Soft sand coloured base with yellow, blue, brown, green and red to the print. Lovely details. Fitted bodice with darted bust and waist and a small folded bustline with thin shoulder straps. Nipped in waist and very full skirt, sewn on the bias with a generous sweep. Side metal zipper to fasten. No labels, most likely handmade. Not sure of fabric content, feels like a slightly thicker slubby canvas cotton or cotton blended with rayon or linen, texture similar to linen, but crease restitent. Holds the shape very beautifully.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.
