Description: 1940s floral tropical dress. This casual sleeveless style is likely an altered construction. With its bold pattern and cold rayon, it feels more like a fancier dress that was re-purposed. Buttons down the front. No stretch rayon. No tags. For comparison, shown on dress form with bust of 36"/ w 26" / H 36". Suggest a modern M to L- please review measurements as this is a no stretch fabric and needs to accommodate movement. B 39” W 42” H 46” Length 40” (there is no hem available to let this down - there is an added piece of material at the bottom hem, yet it seems more like structural reinforcement than anything else. It does not fold over from the body of the dress - it is more sewn on the inside hem). Great vintage condition except that there are spots scattered in a few places - see pix - almost as if there was a bleach splatter. Maybe they could be filled in? Sold As-Is. **************************** Payment is expected via Paypal within 3 days—please send word if other arrangements are needed. Thank you for understanding! ********** Please remember vintage items are pre-worn and some wear is to be expected. Any beyond normal vintage "wear and tear" is as detailed as possible. Apologies if anything was missed! Thank you for your consideration! ******** NOTE ABOUT THE SELLER-- I love, love, love vintage and retro clothes and accessories. Always known to dress with my own brand of "flair," I have had my own vintage wardrobe for decades. The 40s and 50s are my favorite eras although I can often find things to like from any period. I am also a big fan of custom cars and vintage drag racing, vintage toys, burlesque stars, and vintage pin up photos and novelties. I CAN: -help you with your own vintage wardrobe. I watch a lot of old movies and look at old photographs--I pull ideas from a number of sources and could help you with your own vintage styling. -get you any measurement of an item that you need and share as much as I am able about different fabrics and materials. I CAN'T: -guarantee that something will fit...or that you will even like it as much in person. I know buying clothes online has some disadvantages--that's why I offer reasonable prices and try to provide as much information as possible. Happy shopping! Xoxoxo
