This is a classic early 1950s day dress in a great print - these are not easy to find. The shirtwaist style is tweaked with a curvy pointed collar and perky short sleeves. The full skirt is softly pleated into the waist seam.

FABRIC/COLORS: A geometric print in dark turquoise against a white background. The turquoise squares are designed to look like bold paint strokes, complete with streaks and jagged edges. They are arranged in patterns that alternate between vertical and horizontal. The fabric itself is a medium weight cotton.

TAGS: Mode O Day, Styled in California

CLOSURES: The dress opens completely in front, closes with eight oversized white buttons. There is also a single snap just above the waist, most likely added after-market to prevent gaping. There is a belt loop but no belt - I have shown the dress in some photos with a belt from my closet - it is not included with purchase.

CONDITION: The teal color has blurred slightly in the right underarm area -see closeup. A former owner did some minor seam repair work under both arms using a sewing machine - you can see in the closeups that it was not expertly done, resulting in some very minor seam creasing - fabric is intact. There is also a subtle 1" tannish discoloration along the edge of the bodice placket - see second closeup. No other issues noted.

Nice golf pullover
Size: XX-Large, Color: Colony Blue Melange
Nice pullover 1/4 zip. Quality is pretty decent, the color and fit is really good. Leaves good flex room in the shoulders. The material isn’t to heavy and can be worn with a vest if needed. The only thing about the fit is the sleeve length. I wear in a dress shirt 35”-36” length and this hangs past my thumb.

Great 1/4 Zip for money
Size: 4X-Large, Color: Black Melange
This quarter zip pullover is a great addition to any wardrobe. The fabric is lightweight, breathable, and does a nice job wicking away moisture, making it perfect for golf or any outdoor activity. The fit is true to size with a clean, athletic look—not too tight and not too loose. The material feels smooth. The zipper is sturdy, and the overall quality is impressive for the price. It also holds up well after washing without losing shape. Nice material, wrinkle resistant and soft. Great for the course, workouts, or even casual wear. Highly recommend!

True to size and great quality
Size: X-Large, Color: Colony Blue Melange
This shirt fits true to size. It is very soft and comfortable. The fabric is a thinner fabric that can be worn over dress shirts. The quality of the shirt seems to be very good. I have bought these pullovers in multiple colors, and they all seem to be consistent with the quality and size.

Received the wrong size
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy Melange
Seemed and looked like a decent quality shirt. A little lighter weight than I expected. I ordered an XL, but received a Large, which did not fit. Returned it and bought a similar shirt in a different brand.
