* Vintage novelty print floral dress featuring botanical line drawings, circa 1950s by Bill Sims.
* Made from crisp, smooth 100% cotton, which feels totally different than modern cotton!
* Sleeveless, button front design with deep hip pockets, fit+flare silhouette. Bodice is almost a scoop / boat neckline hybrid. Buttons can be undone for a sexier look, if desired.
* Fantastic color palette of white with turquoise blue, lilac purple, grass green and a mauve-y pink, with thin black outlines.
* Flowers seem to include Chrysanthemums, zinnias and a sort of lilac / bluebell cross. Very detailed and beautiful.
* Fits like approximately a women's size small to smaller medium (if you have a small waist.) However, please compare measurements to a dress you already own to ensure a good fit.
* Very good vintage condition. Could use a pressing and a dry cleaning, some faint darkening of underarm area. Also, hem was hand sewn, and is slightly uneven. Overall, looks great.
* Amazing rockabilly mid-century style that would look nice with sandals or heels in the summer, or a cardigan and boots in the colder months. A classic yet quirky piece! ;)
