1950s Du-Rite Floral Cotton Dress With Dropped Waist

About the Item

This charming 1950s cotton sun dress with a softly abstracted floral print in soft pastel shades in pink, blue, green and grey is a lovely piece for summer. It features a dropped waist with piping and V shaping to the front and back. There are princess seams to contour the bodice, a full calf length skirt with a soft net lining for additional volume and a central zip fastening at the reverse. This lovely dress is in excellent vintage condition, from Canadian label Du-Rite. Would fit up to US size 6, UK size 10. Would best suit US size 6, UK size 10. Our model is a UK 6-8 and 5ft 4in. (163cm) and this dress was a great fit on her.
