DescriptionWoman's day dress made of a vibrant yellow, green, blue and red on white, large-scale floral print. The dress is of simple construction, falling straight from the shoulder, fitted only with diagonal darts from the side seam. The sleeves are short, and the rounded neckline is finished with a one-inch-wide stuffed edging, stitched horizontally to form three rows resembling cording. The dress is entirely lined with a light-weight, white, plain-woven synthetic fabric. The hems are finished with flat, polyester lace. The self-fabric tie belt is 2 1/2 inches wide and about 66 inches long.
