Stellar Lilly Pulitzer "The Lilly" label dress, with pleated bodice and full skirt, circa late 1970s vintage. Marked size 8, best on a US modern 2- 4 or smallish 6 (please confirm measurements below). White background, purple flowers with green stems; stems spell "lilly" throughout. Narrow rolled spaghetti straps with three button adjustment loops at back; straps could be tucked into front bodice for strapless option. Hidden zip up the back, bodice is supported with slight boning at the sides and back. Skirt is gathered below the waistline with pleating, all pleats face inward for a very flattering line. Full length, full skirt shape. Optional sash belt included, could also be used as a head wrap, etc. Dress is fully lined in white cotton, both layers have "Lilly" lace hem tape.
Content is 65% polyester, 35% cotton, with a crisp cotton look and feel.
Condition is very good to excellent, super clean and fresh - appears very seldom worn. Very slight, faint yellowish mark on the front left skirt, about upper thigh height and pea- sized. Only noticeable upon very close inspection- my camera would not pick this up. Otherwise excellent.
A very pretty and unusual example of vintage Pulitzer, in a classic sundress style, this timeless gown is ready to debut!
