Sweet little candy stripe 40s/50s day dress. High square collarless neck and short sleeves. Small band across the chest with three decorative twotone cirular striped buttons. Fitted waist with a matching tie belt with button detail on. Full midi skirt. Side seam fastens with concealed poppers. No labels. Fabric feels like a coarser woven cotton.
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, due to the side zip fastening and fairly tight cuffs I would say this best suits about a UK10 cinched in with a belt. For your best fit please refer to the measurements.

CONDITION
Good wearable condition with some signs of visible wear and repair, though still presents well and priced accordingly:
-Small patch repair, fairly well matched up to the corner of the underarm.
-A few small marks, most very slight and to the lower part of the skirt, so doesn't detract much when worn, see photos.
