Vintage 1950s rust rockabilly cotton sun dress by Marjae of Miami – UK 8

Vintage 1950s rust rockabilly cotton sun dress by Marjae of Miami. A beautiful original circa 1950, all the way from Miami! This stunning dress has thin shoulder straps, ruched bodice, nipped in waist and semi-pleated skirt with wonderful off-centre gathered pleat detail. The colour is stunning, like rust, and features a beautiful beige symmetrical floral pattern. It fastens with a lovely talon metal zip up the back. This is a stunning dress, perfect for Summer parties – the photos really don’t do it justice! It’s in good vintage condition overall but there is some discolouration present on the underarm area which I’ve not been able to get out with vanish (however they would likely not be visible when the dress is worn). If you have any questions feel free to get in touch!
