That back tho! Absolutely stunning vintage Hawaiian NEON cotton maxi dress with an effervescent full length watteau style deep pleating down the back, giving fab flare behind, even further accentuated by the low scooped back. The pattern is positively cheerful, with oversized irises on an abstracted palm frond background in lemon yellow, tangerine, hot pink and subtle magenta lines. The wide band neckline, princess seam construction and additional fitted darts give a smooth appearance in the front, allowing the back to steal the show. No brand label, made in Hawaii, circa 1960s/70s.
