This vintage 1970s era dress is just adorable, so girly, possibly inspired by the simple elegant empire dresses of the Napoleonic era after the French Revolution! Fitted empire waist bodice with scoop neck, 2.25" wide front waistband with piped edges and long semisheer ties, gently gathered skirt, sheer lace sleeves, narrow lace ruffles edging neckline and cuffs.

CONDITION: I found a small dark stain on the inner dress near the hem along the right side - not likely to be noticeable during wear. No other issues seen.
