New Etsy Listing: Vintage Grecian Goddess/Hostess Gown







Maxine's a vision as she opens her double doors to receive her guests in this lovely, silky-feel hostess dress by Butterfield 8!

This dress is done in regal shades of purple and a sort of violet/lavender, and it features beautiful Grecian-style embroidered trim on the cuffs, bodice, and waist. It's also got a daring, high slit on the left thigh - you might consider a slip or some sort of pettipants if you wear this out to a party, but I'll leave that up to you! :)

It's marked a size small, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 15"
Bust: 18" (double)
Waist: 13" (double, NO stretch)
Hip: Free
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 52.5" shoulder to hem

Price:  $27.99 plus $6.00 shipping.

Thanks for looking!

Hand-Painted Ladies Caftan/Hostess Dress - Medium to Small Plus-Size!







Maxine's looking like a goddess today in her vintage, hand-painted caftan! I've never seen a piece quite like this one - it's done in a heavy crinkle-cloth material (maybe a cotton blend?) and it's hand-painted in lovely shades of orange, red, yellow, green and blue, and it's even signed "Judy" at the bottom by the artist!

It doesn't look hand-sewn, but there are no labels in it. Please refer to the measurements below:

Shoulder: Open

Bust: 20" (double)

Waist: 18" (double)

Hip: 22" (double)

Length: 54" shoulder to hem

Sleeve: 22"

Price:  $99.00 plus $8.00 US shipping; $19.95 international shipping.

This caftan will be professionally drycleaned before it gets sent out, unless you request otherwise - it should fit anyone from about a modern medium to a small plus-size, based upon measurements.  Don't let this beauty get away!  Thanks for stopping by!
