Summer perfection ahead! The sweetest summer picnic 50s two piece set in bright yellow and white painterly houndstooth check with scattered blue cherries. Fitted boned bodice with a shelfy bustline with pleated petal overlay over a crisp white modesty panel. Thin shoulder straps which buttons on with poppers to the front (would personally stitch these in, but I will leave this to the buyer as you may want to adjust the length to suit). Fitted waist and full skirt sewn in neat pleats with a generous midi length. Back metal zip to fasten. Comes with the matching underbust length bolero jacket with short sleeves and a tie strap to the front. Both pieces are unlabeled, but looks commercially made. 50s era.
Dress is pictured with a petticoat which is not included in the sale.

CONDITION
Very good condition. Straps attach with popper buttons to the front, I would recommend just stitching the straps in to suit, as the popper are a little bit fiddly to do up, and would be securer to sew the straps in, but perfectly wearable as is too, just a personal preference.
