This women’s dress, in white linen-like synthetic fabric with floral appliques, has a faced scoop neckline and a lapped zipper closure center back. The bodice is fitted with a waist and low angled bust dart in the front and two darts at the waist at the side back. The bodice and skirt join at the waist with piping inset into the seam that matches the piping at the neck edge, and a decorative set of bows on the left side front made of the same cording. Pink and green floral appliques decorate the side front of the dress with a sprinkle of rhinestones and white plastic drops. The early 1980s day dress also has cap sleeves and hem that hits below the knee.
