The story:

The front of this dress seems simple enough - 1980s Square-neck sleeveless red & white polka dot dress. Cute enough on its own. 

But now, take a look at the back! We spent quite some (happy) time thinking how we could use the 2 large scarf-ties (attached) most effectively. 

We came out with 3 ways, but perhaps you could think of more ;)  

Pinned?: No. But it was belted to show how it looks when worn with one.

 Measurements:
All measurements are taken with the garment laid flat.
Please DOUBLE the measurements provided to get the approximate circumference measurements.
Alternatively, you can take a piece of your own clothing, lay it flat, measure it and make a comparison.

Approx. Size: M/L

Shoulders: Approx 16in

Bust: Up to 19in

Hips: Up to 22in

Total Length: 43.5in

Armhole: Approx 13.5in (*Please do note that the armhole is rather large. You would have to wear a bandeau top or a simple tank top inside. In the 80s, we imagine they would have worn a tankini - remember those ;)?
