Nat Kaplan mum-print dress

Mid-century pleaser. Pour your curves into this pretty posy of a sundress. Snow-white, soft-pink, rose-red. Criss-cross braid trim kicks some extra va-voom to the cleavage. Princess seams, sharply-fitted -- scoop neckline -- gusseted, dolman, cap sleeves -- sweet chrysanthemum-printed cotton -- wide knife pleats. Full full skirt. Back metal zipper. By Nate Kaplan of New York.

condition**

Highly-wearable & in beautiful shape. No exterior holes, stains or fading. Crinoline under dress in some images.

Noted repair: 1/4"x1/8" hole at underarm gusset seam has been repaired.

Noted alteration: princess seams have been skillfully added to the back bodice -- these may be opened/removed to add 2" to shoulder & bust measurements. A 2" square of fabric has been removed from the collar-facing -- probably used to repair the neck braiding -- this doesn't affect exterior.

** 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.
