Bright and colourful crisp cotton late 50s / early 60s dress by Brilkie Model. Off-whie and grey background with huge deep pink and orange carnation style flowers. Drop waisted bodice with short sleeves and a wide rounded neck with small v-slit in front and lower cut scoop back. Natural waistline nips in and the fantastic full skirt falls in wide box pleats from the waistband down. Strong weighty cotton, possibly blended with something, holds the shape very nicely. Side metal zipper to fasten.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.
SIZEThe dress is not labeled with a size but fits approx like a Small. For your best fit please refer to the measurements. I would err slightly on the side of caution with the measurements as the side zip makes this a bit snug to get into.
