1980s Sunshine Shirt Dress w Belt sz S/M
A favorite find! Late 70s / early 80s canary yellow crisp shirt dress with large white collar that overlaps, creating a faux-wrap bodice. Shoulder epaulettes with a white button, very slim shoulder pads give a bit of structure, long straight sleeves that I believe were intended to be cuffed a couple of times (I’ve put both cuffed & uncuffed measurements below). Waist is elastic around the back; matching belt is a great piece on it’s own – 2″ wide with detail stitching & an awesome white plastic buckle. A single side loop on the dress keeps it connected. Skirt has a straight fit with pockets at the hip, inverted pleats front & back center for movement, and a cute (though only decorative) flap pocket on the backside.
