Greetings & Thanks for stopping by!
Newly created sun dress for your vintage Cissy doll. It is made to resemble one of Cissy’s early sun dresses. It is made with vintage mid-century cotton (width is 35” dating it 1940’s-1950’s). The fabric has pink petite roses on an ivory background. It is a lovely old fabric that is clean, crisp with bright colors, it is a lightly polished cotton that is smooth with a hint of sheen!
Construction of dress is made similar to early sun dresses. Sleeveless bodice has a round neck, it is lined with white swiss cotton organdy. Arm holes are edged with french val lace. It closes in back with 4 square snaps that are accented with pearl buttons. Skirt is about 56” around with a 2” hand sewn blind hem.
I always like to show contrast of slip underneath vs. no slip. To bring out fullness of skirt a full slip is needed. It is shown with a slip in all photos except last # 7-it is shown without a slip. Slip is not included. For a super generous flare I also add puffed white gift tissue under the slip. (You can use the tissue I pack with- it is safe for the doll and long term storage, as I use a non-acidic food grade white baker’s tissue)
Listing is for dress only. Doll, shoes and props not included.
Thank you!
