Perfectly fitted, with a high Peter Pan collar and folded cuff sleeves which fall just below the elbow. Bias cut with a loose underarm and tight waist and gathered hip to give the classic hourglass silhouette. This darling little wiggle dress has pockets and a vent slit in the back, as well as a matching belt to finish the look. Rear zipper closure down the spine with very shapely tailored stitching to flatter the derriere. A great addition to any vintage pinup wardrobe, perfect for for the office or a casual cocktail hour!

A Note on Buying Vintage

This is an antique or early vintage garment made from delicate materials such as silk, fine cotton, lace, or early synthetics. These textiles may display signs consistent with age, which includes:

• natural fiber fatigue
• gentle thinning at stress points
• subtle irregularities inherent to early manufacturing
• age-related softness or patina

These qualities are authentic to historic garments and are considered part of their character, not defects, unless otherwise stated.

Notable flaws, such as excessive wear, stains, holes, or rips will always be photographed and disclosed in the condition notes.
