Girly Vintage Dress 70s 80s Floral Print Lolita XS Petite Gamine VFG

This lovely little dress is 1980s vintage, girly without going over the top with ruffles and bows. It was made by a company that specialized in children's clothing, so it was originally designed for a preteen. It's a classic shirtwaist style, except straight cut bodice. It has short sleeves, a peter pan collar, and a tie belt that is attached in back. It also has pockets in the skirt with flaps and button accent. SIZE: Labeled size 14 - that would be preteen 14, not Misses 14. For reference, my spokesmodel was wearing a size 6 at the time of these photos.
