vintage arts and crafts print Droopy and Browns late 1970s to early 1980s dress
A fine printed fabric, possibly a viscose/wool challis? Slightly open weave so drapes beautifully. The design reminds me of William Morris, with an Indian block print influence.
Easy drop waisted style, with very full sleeves gathered onto a deep buttoned cuff. Plain round neckline and nylon centre back zip fastening.
I’ve added a 30s/40s belt of my own as I thought it could be worn cinched in also. I will include - it’s not perfect but fits a variety of sizes (can add hole if you need smaller), and the colour is a good match I thought. At least then you have the option of wearing either way!
Measures: A vintage size 14 so approx modern 10/12
Bust 38"
Waist 34" (dropped)
Hips 40" approx
Length from nape to hem approx 46"
Condition:
One button was missing to cuff, so I have done my best to cover one to match (central button, it’s very slighty scuffed at the edge but not at all obvious!) otherwise excellent.
