70s Vintage Hawaiian Maxi Dress Mermaid Style Fit & Flare Slinky M VFG
This vintage 1970s Hawaiian mermaid maxi dress is so sleek and wiggly! Curvy princess lines made even more flattering with vertical darts. Flared mermaid skirt that achieves a train illusion by curving up into the body of the dress front and center. Short dolman sleeves with a deep soft "ruffle" that echoes the mermaid bottom.

CONDITION: Excellent. I don't see any stains, holes, tears or other issues.
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.
