Fitted drop waisted bodice with a high square neck and an interesting waistband design with a dropped square panel in front. Natural waistline cinches in and comes with a slim matching belt. Full skirt. Side metal zipper fastener.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.
SIZE
The dress is labeled a vintage size 12 but fits approx like a Small or a UK8 to a small UK10 in modern sizing. For your best fit please refer to the measurements.
Chest: 36" (best fit slightly smaller, I would estimate 34")

Dropped waist: 30"
Shoulder to dropped waist: 16.5"
Length: 42"
(There is a 1" hem on this)
CONDITION
Very good condition. Looking at the inside seams, the front bodice darts have been let out at some point and taken back in again, though this is not visible on the outside when worn.
