This piece is utterly charming and so much prettier in real life.
A home-sewn piece from the 1950's it is made from semi sheer rayon with a fine stripe and then a romantic two-tone pink rose head print.
The dress has a close fitting waist panel, three-quarter length sleeves and a full circle skirt. The bodice and skirt are fully lined and the sleeves aren't.
Such a divine piece which is perfect for the summer.

Condition
Very good with minor points to note;
- looks to have had a replacement zip
- slight mend at the top of the zip
- interesting stitching on sleeves - assuming its from where the lining has been attached
- one 8mm darn in the front skirt, but this is lost within the drape
Has been washed, pressed and is ready to wear.
