The bodice is cut in one piece with the sleeves, which have underarm gussets. Closes at one side with a metal zip. Fabric is a polished cotton. Made for Vogue Overseas Fashions - Adelaide. 1950s.

Condition
Good, repaired condition. There are patches at each underarm, the largest patches are at the back. Due to the position, and to the busy pattern, not noticeable. There's a pen mark on one sleeve which I have not attempted to remove. I removed the kick pleat behind the skirt vent to make the patches, I'll include the extra fabric in case you ever need it.
