This piece has been exceptionally well made.
Made in the 1940's from a beautiful quality floppy cotton in a bold floral print of yellow, blue, green and rust on a white base, it is a classic design of the era.
It features full length sleeves with seamed cuffs, has a seamed collar, fastens down the front with a long metal zip and has a long tie belt. Has a label in the back neck that looks like a very very faded CC41 label.
Originally designed to be worn in the house only, this would make a great summer maxi-dress.

Condition
Very good, the only minor points to note are;

- there are a few small marks but because the print is so bold and busy they are really not very noticeable unless you're really looking for them
