VTG 1970’s Kimo’s Polynesian Shop Made in Hawaii Maxi Dress, size 12
This dress is almost a modern riff on the empire style so popular on a current television show. It features cap sleeves and a simple scoop neck. The fabric is gathered under the bust and and then falls to almost an A-line. There are no pockets and you pull it on over your head. The back is a real surprise. The simple scoop in front falls to a deeper scoop in back and the fabric gathered to make the dress more full. The inside of the dress reveals an elastic hook and fixture which I think can be used to gather the back even more. The color is vibrant and photos have been taken inside and outdoors. My mannequin is small so the draping of the fabric will differ on a larger person. The dress is a vintage size 12.Flat measurements:Bust below the gathers - 19"Waist area - 19"Length - front 50 3/4", back 52" The condition is very good.
