$55 

A lovely bright green silk/cotton fabric vintage house dress or robe c1940s-1950, with the tag made in Japan by Mme. Butterfly. It has fine leaf and flower stitching throughout and traditional Chinese style loop and knot "buttons", made of rolled and sewn fabric. It retains its original tag which lists the size a M (medium) which would probably equate to a current size 12 and the straight cut body of the robe measures 22 1/2" across the waist (front measure taken, complete circumference approximately 45") and the measurement from the collar to bottom hem is 43" in length(front measure taken). The sleeves are 3/4 length in a no shoulder seam style. It is an interesting combination of a classic Chinese style made to suit Western requirements, as it has practical pockets on the front in the robe. It is in very good condition with no losses, repairs or damage other than some very slight lightening/streaking, and it is a little wrinkled. Surface shipping is $12 (to the US - other spots may vary) - insured is higher. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.
