White dress with blue and pink floral stripe


Up on offer here another simply lovely 1950s floral print shirtwaister dress. This dress is made from white cotton with a pink and blue floral stripe design. The dress has its original belt also. What is great about this dress is that unlike many other dresses in this style it doesn't just fasten with the buttons, but has a zip also.



Measurements probably best suited to a size 6-8:

Bust: 33in

Waist: 25in

Length: 43.5in


Condition: Overall excellent. The belt is a little discoloured, although i think with a little clean this may be remedied with something like oxy clean. Otherwise in great, ready to wear condition



I’m calling this week think pink week, because up on offer this week are some of the most sensational garments all with hints of pink and lilac. It is a week of listing filled with feminine styles and prints. Think Horrockses esque florals, more Susan Small’s than you can shake a stick at and glorious cocktail and prom dresses! I’ve got a variety of periods up on offer as well with dresses and skirts from the 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. Of course combined shipping on all these lovely items is offered too!


A little bit of background on me: I am an obsessive vintage collector and have amassed a huge collection of vintage from Victorian right through to the 1980s. I am about to embark on a rather pricey masters at the Royal College of Art (studying design history) and henceforth I am having to sell off large portions of my collection to fund my studies. Over the coming weeks I’ll be listing everything from glamorous 30s evening dresses, to novelty print 50s day dresses to 60s beaded shift dresses. I can’t believe myself quite how much I have amassed! I am also selling items from the collection of Naomi Thompson, including items that featured in her recent Style me Vintage: Clothes book.

If you are interested in my collection visit queen-tree.blogspot.co.uk for more information or “like” my Advantage In Vintage page on facebook where I will also be putting up previews of some of the items coming up on ebay.
