Vintage 1970s does 1940s Knitwear Dress - Emerald Green Pointelle Hand-Knit Sundress Size XS to M

♛Details

Stunning vintage ca. 1970s does 1940s dress in emerald green, a hand-knit pointelle. The yarn feels smooth and high quality, a mix of matte finish and a slight sheen that points towards it being a cotton/rayon blend (best guess!). Tie straps, a nipped waist with drawstring tie, the perfect A-line skirt.

Wear in the summer with sandals, rock in cooler weather with a fitted jacket + boots, layer it like a jumper. Phenomenal -- I haven't seen anything else out there like it.

•Closures: pulls on, ties
