Made in the 1940's, this fabulous pinafore dress would make a great Christmas dress!

Made from very lightweight grosgrain in bright red, it has a lovely swish and fall to the fabric which gives it great movement as you walk. It fastens on the left side with buttons, has a sweetheart neckline and soutache detailing on the pinafore and around the decorative pockets - pockets are not functional as they're teeny.

 

Measurements

This will fit up to a 36-30-40, although the buttons could be moved on the waist to make it smaller. To ensure it will fit you properly, please compare the measurements below to a similar piece you already own;

Width across the pinafore at bust level 14"

Flat waist 15" - although, as mentioned above, buttons could be moved

Flat hip 21"

Shoulder seam 15"

Shoulder to top of waist band 14"

Waist band 2 1/4"

Length 41.5" - no hem allowance

 

Condition

Good with some points to note;

- there are some light grazes to the pinafore on the front and the back about 2" up from the waist - see photo

- there is a 1cm mark in the centre front skirt - see photo - the piece has been washed and the mark remains

- there is some light iron shine seen in some lights

- some slightly lighter areas, again, only seen in some lights

- a small mark on the bodice near the soutache
