Seriously cool black cotton dress from the 1950s. This dress features solid black bodice and skirt with gingham cuffs and faux button hole details. I love the way the bodice sits on the shoulders. Metal zipper. 

The Story: This piece comes from a collection of pieces that where found in an abandoned schoolhouse turned town hall. Unsure why these pieces ended up here... possibly donations of some kind? Anyways, they've all sat untouched for decades until another picker purchased them from the land owners and then onto me. I've since machine washed every piece and tried to fix them up as much as possible. Some in much better shape than others. Still felt they all deserved a chance at a new life but please read condition carefully for them!
