This is a great retro vintage dress from the 50s! Pink, gray, white, and green flowers really stand out against the royal blue ground with black amoeba type designs. Its quite a striking early Fifties cotton day dress by Nelly Don!
The center front closure has 6 black plastic buttons with bright rhinestone centers. There is also a metal side zipper. There are small shoulder pads present.
The waist is a wide band, slightly below the natural waist. The skirt is knife pleated to the waistband. There are thread belt loops, but no belt present.
In immaculate condition, I dont think this dress has ever been worn. The fabric feels like it still has the original sizing. Ill go so far as to say this dress is in near mint condition.
**** Some photos were taken with a crinoline under the skirt, which is NOT included but may be available separately. ****

MEASURE CAREFULLY! Make sure your measurements are smaller than these measurements. This dress was difficult to get on both the mannequin, with 13 shoulders, and the dress form, with 14 shoulders, and is very fitted.
