Blue Swiss Dot Puff Sleeve Dress for Vintage Cissy
Welcome!
Newly made dress for your vintage Cissy doll. Dress is made with older ( 70’s?) semi sheer swiss dot cotton. It is looser weave cotton in a pretty baby blue/or robins egg blue with double swiss dots in ecru shade. Fabric is clean with great color. It does have a slight storage odor, to me not really offensive and should air out. I will pack with a fabric softener sheet.
Dress bodice and sleeves are made from a pattern of Cissy’s’ ‘Dancing Dress’. It is lined with vintage cotton organdy. I added sewn in ties at side seams that make a lovely bow in back. It has a little bouquet of pink daisies at waist. Closes in back with 4 square vintage snaps (I nabbed a box of about 500 old vintage snaps recently!) Snaps are accented with pearl buttons. The skirt of dress is a generous 60” around with a 2” hand sewn blind hem, it is about 8” in length.
Note the fabric is pretty sheer like an organdy and a slip would be a plus- for modesty and to bring out skirt fullness. I have shown with a slip in all photos except last # it is shown without. I also have shown the sheerness with a paper under fabric. Slip is not included.
