This is an iconic dress from the very early 1950s. The fabric is cotton in blue with white dots. She has a precious front design, still with a 1940s reminiscence. Fabulous look with a massive full skirt. She closes with a side metal zipper. This dress has no label but it is not homemade and it is a quality garment.

Condition: This dress is completely wearable but note the following issues:
- The shoulders are slightly faded (view photo) - very subtle to be honest
- The bottom of the skirt has a few vertical water marks, not all around the skirt, mainly located on the bottom back (view photo)
- A couple of tiny marks (view photo)
- Signs of use/age
It sounds a lot of issues but the overall look and shape of the dress is not that dramatic at all and it deserves a chance! As is and priced accordingly!
