60s Mini Dress Mod Scooter Girl Purple Drop Waist Umbrella Pleated Skirt Women's Small VFG
This late 60s to early 70s minidress is so cute and girly, and the color! It's 20s inspired with that drop waist. The scoopneck bodice is fitted with curving princess seaming, while the flirty skirt is umbrella pleated. Slip a long sleeved tee-shirt or thin sweater underneath and you're ready for cooler weather.

CONDITION: On close inspection, I found a single pinhole in the upper front skirt as well as two pulls - see closeup for the larger. No other issues noted - no stains or tears.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
