50s/60s Purple and Yellow Roses Full Skirt Sundress With Head Scarf - xs, petite, sm

SKU: 00815-010

From the late 50s or early 60s, a soft cotton sundress in purple and yellow roses on creamy white.

  • Tubular (corded) spaghetti straps and matching belt 
  • Matching triangle scarf, to wear as you choose (tied beneath your chin or behind your hair, twisted for a headband, around your neck for a bit more coverage, tied it to your handbag, or let your pet wear it to match your outfit)
  • Bust darts for shape
  • Nipped waist opening to a moderately full skirt (shown with a small crinoline beneath, not included -- could go bigger if desired)
  • Cool, crisp, and lightweight but not see-through. Unlined, with metal back zipper and hook&eye closure

Labels: none, most likely home sewn

Fiber/Care: cotton / washable 

Condition: One diffuse spot on one side of the scarf. The hem was let down in the distant past to the longest it could go (no additional hem allowance). The machine stitching on the head scarf is less-than-perfect (doesn't show). 

* This vintage floral sundress with matching belt and head scarf is freshly laundered and ready to wear. *
