Description: The Hawaiian label Kamehameha was launched in 1936 and was named after King Kamehameha who united the Hawaiian islands. They were famous for their brilliant tropical floral prints which they made for the tourist markets. They combined the feel and beauty of Hawaii with the looks popular on the mainline. The items were manufactured on the island and the prints done in-house. They primarily used cotton for their designs and this dress is no exception. The fabric is that perfect crisp fifties cotton and it has been screened with a brilliant pattern of leaves on an abstract yellow backdrop. The bodice is fitted and cut so that it has shape and molds to the bust. I love the double front panels of fabric around the bust that allow for support but give the dress that interesting detailing. The waist is cinched and the skirt is very full l. The back is finished with a panel of elastic so the fit adjusts to the wearer. Excellent condition The dress is unlined and closes with a side metal zipper. Bust: 15-17" flat across from side seam to side seam Waist: 13” flat across from side seam to side seam Hips: open Length: 47” from top of shoulder to hem
