About the Item

This unusual cotton skirt was manufactured in the 1950s by 'Lady Anne' and is tailored to a full-skirted, pleated style typical of this era. The skirt has the illusion of being hand-painted with a playful novelty print of a night time scene; we see lovers sitting on park benches lit up by the light of street lamps and a night sky sprinkled with stars. In shades of grey with clashing splashes of orange and yellow, there is a moody, artistic feel to the print. This skirt fastens at the rear of the waist with a zip and single button. This skirt is in very good vintage condition and must have been a cherished piece - only very gentle signs of wear noted with no issues. A good fit for a small waisted UK size 8-10 or US 4-6. MEASUREMENTS Waist - 26.5 in. (67 cm) Hip - 46 in. (117 cm) Length - 27.5 in. (70 cm)
