The Flax

Meet Flax, she is a beautiful late 1970s cotton corduroy midi dress in a gorgeous browny shade. Flax is beautiful and is adorned in gorgeous frill details around her yoke and collar with gorgeous leaf decorative placements around her neckline. She has a gorgeous silhouette with full skirt and beautiful sleeves and comes with a matching belt. I love her little leaf buttons, they are the kind of detail you really only do get with vintage dresses. Flax is super lovely and wearable, she is perfect for teaming with boots for an instantly stylish look.

This girl measures to approx UK size 10/12 small 14.

Bust - up to 39"

Waist - stretches from 28" - 34" 

Length -  45"

 For reference our mannequin, Norma, measures to a UK 6. 

The Flax has been freshly laundered and is ready to wear. She can safely be washed at home on a cool setting. She is in good vintage condition, she has a few minor signs of wear.

This beauty has minimal signs of vintage wear, but please bear in mind that our pieces are true vintage, they’ve been danced in and they have been lived in, so all of our garments will carry your usual signs of vintage wear. Anything that we think is outside of what would class as usual vintage wear, we will state.

Here at Pansy we know vintage sizes are very different from modern sizes, and we pride ourselves on offering accurate measurements with approximate modern UK sizing to ensure a your Pansy purchases will be a good fit.
Although we do offer approx modern sizing it is also very helpful if you know your own measurements. If you are unsure of these, an easy way of estimating them is measuring one of your own garments, that fits well, laid flat. Measure in inches, across from pit to pit, flat across the waist and double both of these measurements.  Our length measurements are mostly taken from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem.
