$ 79.00 Sale Save

This is a great vintage sundress, especially if you want to go without a bra, and yet like the idea of a bit of extra oomph up top. The bodice has a vee neck that forms the wide straps in front. The midline part of the bra cups are trimmed with 4 rows of double ruffles. Below the bust, the dress is fitted to the torso with elasticized shirring all the way around. The full skirt has 3 tiers.

SIZE: No size label. Bust and waist measurements given unstretched - moderately stretched. Another note: the shoulder straps have an extra 4" for lengthening in back if you want them longer.
