From the late 60s or early 70s, a day dress with 40s styling in navy blue with a bold, colorful print.

• Bodice has the sweetheart neckline and strong (unpadded) shoulders of iconic 40s fashions.
• Buttons and belt buckle in a honey-colored plastic resembling bakelite.
• Chain-link print in shades of red, orange, yellow, and white looks like giant knitting stitches, plus stripes.
• Knee-length straight skirt (just a hint of an A-line shape).
• Unlined, closes at back with hooks and eyes and a zipper.
