TRUE VINTAGE 1960s - '70s FULL LENGTH FLORAL EASTER PARTY GOWN

,Zooming into Spring and Summer now, you may be looking around for outfits to wear this Easter weekend . . … .

A beautiful gown in a pastel floral print, perfect for a Spring dance, dinner, theater event, etc. – anything that this week’s celebrations or events might throw at you.

This one has an empire waistline seam, a sheer layer of fabric over an opaque lining and a center back zipper. No slip necessary, though I do have a true vintage long crinoline underneath in this picture. I’ll show that to you later as it is very interesting, itself.

I’m not sure whether this dress was made in the ’60s or ’70s. I lean toward the ’60s, but it is a classic style with only one tag left inside that is not a definite answer to the question. But, the fabric just has a ’60s feel to it …

IMG_1472Here’s slender size 2 Stella in a vintage size 12 suit (and there’s only a little extra room!)  What a pretty style in floral print, with a halter-tie, criss-cross neckline and figure-flattering (for some) skirt.

Of course, it has built-in bra cups and an elasticized back, waist and leg openings.  Naturally, a back metal zipper, too.

True vintage labels are often so quaint – this one reads: ” Catalina – part of the art of Eve. ”   THAT’S a rather heavy thought to consider . . . . . .
