This fabulous frock is made of a silk-like acetate, in a beautiful antique paisley print of rich tangerine with browns and black. The sleeves have a band of black grosgrain above the elbow, and below they are full, down to the elasticized wrist.

There is a seperate black grosgrain belt to tie at the waist. It is fitted through the waist, then flares out to the hem and closes with a metal zipper.

About a medium size, it measures:

Bust - 38"

Waist - 32"

Hips - 44"

Sleeves - 28"

Length - 57"

In #2 very good condition: the orange color is somewhat faded in places.
