  • Bracelet-length kimono-cut sleeves.
  • Smooth, seamed bodice.
  • Shaped, nipped waist has interior grosgrain band with hook&eye.
  • Thread loops hold the matching belt.
  • Tiny pleats open into an extra-full skirt to wear with or without a crinoline (not included).

This dress is a real vintage gem, with finishing and details you won't find today, at any price. How often do you see a 4" hem on a modern dress? From the estate of Dorothy E., a woman with some truly fabulous clothes.

Note that this dress coordinates perfectly with Dorothy's mocha crinoline, which was likely made to go with it. Contact us if you'd like both items. We're happy to offer the set at a discount.

Very cheeky
Format: Paperback
My kids loved the Dad and Me book and continue to read it years later. I ordered this for a birthday. We enjoyed it on the birthday but my kids haven’t asked to read it since. Cute but it didn’t live up to some other versions. Still glad I purchased.
