Description

Fabulously floaty full length hand made vintage pink hostess dress - late 60s, we'd guess - with sheer chiffon overlayer, featuring a roll collar, gorgeous sheer sleeves and ruffle trim. Fully lined with back metal zip fastening and tiny hooks and eyes at the nape and to secure the back chiffon overlayer. There is a very minor mark to the back which is only noticeable on close inspection. Add a slinky gold belt (pictured for illustration only) and it could give Beverley a run for her money at Abigail's Party! DESIGNER: hand made COLOUR: pink FABRIC: chiffon CARE: hand wash or dry clean CONDITION: very good SIZE: best contemporary fit UK8/10 MEASUREMENTS: underarm – underarm – 17½“, length (nape to hem) – 53”

Sizing

Customers are asked to bear in mind that vintage garment sizes bear little or no resemblance to contemporary sizes. Furthermore, current high street size labels are inconsistent, with M&S and Wallis being noted for their generous proportions while others come up on the small side.

Please always refer to the measurements provided in the item description rather than the garment label size, and note that any ‘best fit’ suggestion we make will be based on modern day sizing. By way of example, our own suggested standard size 12 dress has an underarm to underarm measurement of approximately 19" with a waist size of 30".

In order to best gauge the suitability of an item, you may find it useful to compare our stated measurements with those of one of your own garments which is a comfortable fit. Our garment measurements are taken with the item laid flat, and all sizes in our descriptions are approximate.
