This vintage 1960s day dress is plus sized, and new old stock, in a cute scooter style and a bold confident print. The dress is gently fitted with princess seaming in front and vertical darts in back. The sheath style has the illusion of a dropped waist, with large patch pockets below the waist level, and a pair of inverted pleats in front for easy walking.

SIZE: Labeled size 22 1/2.

FABRIC/COLORS: The print uses rich shades of turquoise, pine green and brown, along with white, black, and a bit of periwinkle for a complex argyle print with stylized floral elements, geometric designs, and plenty of small eccentric polka dots. It reminds me of tapa or Maori designs. The fabric is medium weight, and feels substantial. Hang tag identifies fabric as 100% cotton - "a well mannered fine cotton with famous "Good conduct" finish. Fully Crease Resistant, Mercerized, Residual Shrinkage 2-3%".

TAGS: Smartsetter Original. Hang tag gives information about fabric origin as Wamsutta Mills, New York, N.Y.
