Bleeker Street linen dress
From my closet… a peppermint-pink dress from Jonathan Logan's youthful Bleeker Street line. Heavy, slubbed, Irish-style linen. Circles at the waist are set against a dark-rose waistband. Curvaceously-fitted, paper-doll mod.

- very goodDelightfully wearable shape, with no obtrusive flaws. Any small faults do not retract from wearability and will be fully-disclosed. Noted minor issue: one small half-moon wine-stain in the skirt -- front princess seam. Hem is finished in lace & ribbon but other seam-allowances are unravelling (but intact). Two tiny ink-marks on the back bodice. Slight browning of the fabric at armhole-edges. Regardless, still very wearable & flattering.
** Vintage items are precious, pre-owned pieces of history. Many have unique dyes and handcrafted prints, artisan weaves and intricate hand-tailoring -- details no longer available except in modern couture. Please love & respect your vintage.
