*(big)Details:* An early Laura Ashley that evokes the 1920s middy dress in a surprisingly sophisticated color!Straight cut bodice with dropped waist and large squared off sailor-style collar trimmed with narrow satin ribbon.

*(big)Fabric:* Soft pinwale corduroy in dark turquoise, with navy blue ribbon trim. No fabric content tag and nowhere to snip a bit of fabric for a burn test without disrupting anti-fray stitching, but I believe it's cotton.
*(big)Tag:* laura ashley, Made in Great Britain.
*(big)Closures:* The dress slips on over the head, so that needs to be factored in when considering measurements. The vee shape insert in the middle of the sailor collar closes with two hidden buttons on the left.
*(big)Condition:* No stains, holes, tears or other issues seen.
