Wow y'all! This long sleeve dress is bright and ready to be worn by a rockstar of color! This color palette is so stunning, and perfectly matches a summer sunset in the south.
There are so many cool aspects to this vintage secretary dress, where to I begin... The sleeves!!! Slight puff at shoulder with loose bubble design leading to some of the coolest cuffs I've seen. The stripes are used as a road map for tapered pleats that form a perfect neon cuff fastened with a 4" zipper of the same color at back. What?!!! Amazing!!!
Necktie (or head wrap) is removable. Currently secured with a safety pin at back to hold in place. Faux front shoulder buttons on left side for aesthetic purposes only.
Boxy cut shift dress can be worn as is or waistline can be cinched with a belt, as shown in photos. (belt not included)
In good vintage condition, only based on the two marks noted below. Union made for The Kohler Collection.
Note: Material does not have stretch. Some marks are present in locations that aren't attention grabbing. I plan to work on these spots a bit more, but want to be transparent that they are present.
