1960s Vintage White Ribbon Lace & Periwinkle Blue Accordion Pleat Dress - Sm
The bodice area is comprised of a beautiful white ribbon design, while the skirt portion is comprised of what feels like crepe. The dress zips up the back with a metal zipper. There is only a paper tag inside, but nothing to indicate maker. Would likely best fit a modern Small. For reference model is modern size 4/6.

Fair vintage condition - Some overall wear to the dress, though it does present beautifully and is functionally wearable as is. The dress does however show some SIGNIFICANT discoloration / color fade all over the piece, but it is especially apparent in the blue of the skirt - hence a “Fair” designation. The discoloration does not show up all that well in the photos - apologies! There is also spotting to dress too. A few loose threads here and there that do not seem to impact wear a well as some wear to one spot ribbon of the bodice. A few minor snags to the crepe fabric as well as the pleating is not all crisp.
All measurements are approximate as they are taken flat - for garments specifically this means where applicable (bust, waist, hips) has been doubled unless stated otherwise. If you are uncertain about fit and/or need more measurements please ask! If it is provided in the listing, models and/or dress form sizes are used as a point of reference only. Please remember that all bodies are different so always defer to the measurements I provide and check them against your own, preferably on a similar style garment.
