*Vintage Dream* Tablecloth Dress in Mint Green with Poppy Red Flowers ~ M
*Vintage Dream* Tablecloth Dress in Mint Green with Poppy Red Flowers ~ M
**This dress is one-of-a-kind. Size M (measurements below). Made from a vintage tablecloth.**
Approximately knee length, depending on your height. 37" from shoulder to the shortest part of the hem. Longer at the sides than at the center front & back. In-seam hip pockets.
Fabric is a lightweight, luxuriously soft cotton, with a beautiful drape. It's so soft that I wonder if it might have a little bit of some other fiber mixed in - maybe rayon? Or, it may just be really beautifully broken in cotton. That's what it feels like to me, but fiber content is a little trickier to determine when it's a blend. Regardless of the exact content, it's lovely!
The print is absolute perfection, with poppy red flowers on a mint green background. There is likely some slight fading, but it is VERY subtle & the colors are still clear & bright.
Made to last, with French seams & reinforced stitching. I recommend either hand washing this piece or using the delicate cycle on your washing machine & line drying.
Easy-to-wear shape flatters a variety of body types. Please note, this dress is cut low at the arm holes. For more coverage, it can be layered over tank or t-shirt.
This dress is made from a vintage tablecloth. Minor imperfections are to be expected & are part of the charm. Anything major will be noted.
The tablecloth that I made this particular dress from, had a few small smudges near the hem, as well as two pin sized holes. I've included a close up-photo so that you can see what I'm talking about, but it's a bit hard to see them since they're so small. I thought about mending them, but they're virtually undetectable at this point & mending them would make them more noticeable. The fabric also seems quite stable, so I don't think they're going to get worse anytime soon. I will include some small scraps of fabric that were leftover from making the dress, however, just in case it ever requires repair in the future. There is also a mark on the back of one of the straps (see photo).
This dress is a size M (size chart below). The fit is very forgiving and somewhat adjustable.
