50s/60s Shirtwaist Dress in Blue and White Stripe

From the late 1950s or early 1960s, a crisp, cool shirtwaist dress in blue and white stripes.

• Fabric has the colorscheme of seersucker but is a smooth, shirting type weave (like a beau's buttondown).
• Bodice has 4-button front placket with loop for button beneath the pointed collar, multiple darts for shaping.
• Just-over-the-elbow sleeves are modest but still cool enough for summer.
• Medium-full skirt can be worn with or without a crinoline (ours not included).
• Unlined and easy care.
  

The nifty wallet and (working) watch combo Delphine is holding is available here.

Labels: no manufacturer's label remains, only a size/content tag

Fiber/Care: cotton / washable

Condition: minor signs of age and wear as shown in the photo collage (belt discoloration especially at the buckle, a few tiny spots). nothing serious or detracting from the overall look, which is bright, fresh, and perfect for warm weather.

*This 50s/60s shirtwaister is freshly laundered and ready to wear.*
