Vintage 1950s Sundress and Bolero Set peanut novelty print 50s fit and flare M.
Rare 1950s novelty print peanut print cotton sundress and matching bolero set! This quirky set has so many great features: the dress contrasting has black spaghetti straps and paneled bodice top that has a deep V cut to reveal a little (or a lot!) cleavage, a trimmed dropped waist, heavily gathered full skirt, and back metal zipper. The bolero has batwing sleeves, contrasting black trim, some interfacing at the front neckline to help the collar pop, and best of all...PEANUT BUTTONS. Seriously folks, SO GOOD!!!
Label: Marjae
Condition: excellent minus. There’s some yellowing on the fabric that I just couldn’t get out. The print is so busy that it’s virtually undetectable. Also, minor light fading at the right side back bodice. See photos for details.
