Please take a minute and read my guide to how I measure everything! You can find it in the bottom row of links on every page of the site.
I measure the actual garment so that you can compare it to one of your own that fits you perfectly, rather then trying to sort countless sizing vintage methods into modern day standards.
I then sorted everything into these size charts and into size categories for you to use as a guideline to help you shop quicker!

1960s Metallic Floral Dance Dress
Beautiful and dramatic full skirted frock from the 1960s is made absolutely stunning through the fabric used, which is reminiscent of vintage kimono type fabric. A floral design covers the entire dress with the print woven into the fabric. The dress almost glows with a vibrant emerald hue! I love the scooped back and full skirt. The waist is highlighted with inset bands of fabric cleverly positioned to give you the maximum curves and appearance of a cinched in waistline! Its in perfect condition and ready to wear!
