sheer elegance

Description

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 that it is a size 12 (please take into consideration that vintage sizes do not always accurately reflect modern size measurements). Fabric stretches a bit, especially where the pleaing is. 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.

And now for the measurements (taken wtih the garment lying flat):

total length 44"
top of dress to waist 17"
waist to bottom hem 27"
shoulder seam to shoulder seam 12.5"
shoulder seam to wrist 23"
bust fabric stretched to 20"
bust unstretched 13"
waist stretched to 16"
waist unstretched 12"
hips 16"

Excellent vintage condition.
