Fab 60s Jackie Kennedy style dress and jacket set in taupe linen mix fabric dotted with Mary Quant-esque cream daisies.

Description

Fab 60s Jackie Kennedy style dress and jacket set in taupe linen mix fabric dotted with Mary Quant-esque cream daisies. The simple sleeveless dress is unlined with a round neckline and back zip fastening, while the lightweight bolero jacket, also unlined is edge to edge style with short sleeves.

On close inspection we spotted a few loose threads and a tiny gap at the top of one of the dress side seams but these minor flaws don’t detract from the wearability of this vintage original. We have pictured it cinched in at the waist with two different belts for illustration (not included). Perfect outfit for the races or perhaps Goodwood Revival.

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.

The following charts give approximate comparative UK/US/European sizes for women’s clothing and shoes.
