1950s Retro Print Drop Waist Party Dress

The print looks like little trees, done in olive green and peach on a cream background on this 1950s retro drop waist party dress.

This silhouette is a fitted bodice with crystal buttons down the front, a drop waist and pleated full skirt. The dress comes with an attached (attached by a few threads) netted underskirt and zips up the rear with a metal zipper. The bodice is lined with an off white nylon type fabric. The skirt is unlined with raw edges at the seams. 

The fabric feels and looks like silk with a soft crepe texture. I'm not 100% sure it is silk though.

This listing is for the dress only. Please message me if interested in the hat or necklace.

Condition: Yellowing under the arms. The outer print fabric under the left arm has completely worn away exposing the lining underneath it, this area measuring 1.5"long, see last 3 image.s It might be possible to take a small swatch from the interfacing to create a patch for this area.
