Beautiful sheer floral 1970s dress in shades of dark reds, greens and tans. Lovely pleating. Lightweight fabric - not positive but it may be a light polyester.

Tag reads "Machine Wash Tumble Dry". Metal zipper down the back. Thread beltloops but the dress did not come with a belt. Perfect to wear as the first leaves of fall begin to drop and you are itching for something to pair with those new boots.

victorian top

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:51:26 -0400

$12.00
1970s top which calls back to a style of older days. I picture this top with a pair of chic skinny black cigarette pants. Overall in good condition except for a few minor pulls on the front right bottom. For me, these tiny flaws are not that noticeable, however I have taken them into account when pricing. This top has a lovely ruffled neck and beautiful print. Polyester.

total length is 25.5"
armpit to armpit is 19" across
bust 18" across
19" wide at bottom hem

Please feel free to contact me if you need any additional measurements. I will be happy to provide!
