Made from an amazing early rayon jersey that is cut on the bias so has a touch of stretch to it, this dress is just wonderful. It appears to have been stored properly for all these years as the color is as crisp and vibrant as the day it was made! The design is stunning. A beautiful floral design is done in a brilliant combination of pink and yellow. Its an unusual color combination for this time period and really something special. The cut is simple and sweet with a dipped neckline and soft gathered pleating along each shoulder. The waist nips in with attached ties  that you can use to cinch it in further. There is a curved panel of fabric on each side that is built in for a suggestion of a hip peplum without any of the bulk that a true on would give you. The skirt is cut swing style and gently curves away from the more fitted hip area. The front has a row of three large early plastic buttons that look like twisted licorice and are fabulous. Really a spectacular and special piece. Presents as excellent condition.

Unlined and closes with a side metal zipper. There is slight color run near the seam under each arm but it does not show when on and does not detract at all because of the print.

Shoulders: 14.5"
Bust: 16-17" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 13-15" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 20" flat across from side seam to side seam
Bodice: 16.5" from top of bodice to waist
Skirt: 25.5" from waist to hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: XS-SML

Not a great shirt
Size: Large, Color: Pink
I didn’t like the material, and it didn’t fit. It was listed as slim fit but was definitely not.

Sway Alert!! This is a beautiful suite!
Color: Beige, Size: 5, Color: Beige, Size: 5
This suit fit great my son loved it. The quality is good. My son is five about 40 inches tall around 40 pounds. He’s very slim but the length was great. The suit jacket fit well. The pants waist were a little big, but the adjustable strap helped with that, but the fit overall was great . I would purchase a suit again in a different color.

Great Looking Suit with Lightweight Material
Color: Light Grey, Size: 7
I got this for a beach wedding and it worked out really well. It looked nice without feeling too formal, which was perfect for the setting. The material is linen and it feels lightweight and breathable. It kept my kid comfortable in the heat and didn’t feel stiff or heavy like some dress suits do. The appearance is sharp. The double breasted style makes it look more dressed up, but the linen material keeps it relaxed and appropriate for outdoor events. The fit was true to size. It sat well without looking baggy or tight, and everything stayed in place throughout the event. Quality feels good for the price. The fabric and stitching don’t feel cheap, and it held up well after a full day of wear. Suitability is great for things like weddings, parties, or photos. It works especially well for warmer weather because of the material. For value, I think it’s worth it. You’re getting a nice looking suit with comfortable material that actually works in real situations. Overall, great fit, breathable material, and a clean look that works really well for events.
