Vintage 1940s to 1950s Dress - Apple/Olive Green w Red + Chartreuse Surreal Cottages Print Belted Shirtwaist Size M

♛Details

Vintage ca. 1940s to 1950s cusp apple-to-olive green rayon or rayon blend, sleek + silky in texture. The wacky Midcentury print looks like cottages, arrows, and...Atari space invaders? Well, that's what I'm seeing, anyhow. Shirtwaist bodice w button-loop collar, shoulder pads, self belt, and elegantly flat-pleated but flared skirt (see flat lay).

•Closures: buttons, side metal zipper
