Super fantastic 60\'s dress - what is this style called?

Hi!

Ok, honestly, when I get a piece like this, I'm reminded why I LOVEEEEEEE vintage! I mean how fab are the colors? And the way that all the lines match up perfectly is fantastic! This is my fiancé's fav dress! Neither of us have ever really seen this style before, is anyone familiar with it? What's weird is that on the hanger we though it was just going to hang super long, like the hips would be really low on a person, we didn't realize it had this whole effect where it was bigger around the waist! Any info on the style etc would be great! Also, would you consider this mod?

Hmmm, thats really cute. It looks like it is mimicing a blouse tucked into a skirt but I don't know if there is a name for this effect.
I love the colors, too. If it is fiances' fav why don't you keep it?:hiya:
 
It's *very* mod. The bright colours, the stripes, the perfect geometric shape, the length of it. I could deffinately see that appearing in Quadrophenia. :clapping:

You're new charts will show you the style is called Blouson!! Marie wins the prize for the blouse reference!! Hmmmm, now we need a little 'present' icon!

Oh wait, here's your present Marie

Those front diagonal pockets are killer!! I love that wild 60s print. How lush! :booze: oops, wrong kinda lush...

You're just making me have too much fun today Vix!

TheVintagePeddler,

Plus: Fiancé's favorite
Minus: My waistline prefers snacking more than watching it's figure, hence the dress doesn't fit by a long mile ;)
 
'sack-waist'?? ugh! No wonder it's better known as a blouson.

Too bad it's not a 'snack-waist' or it would fit, eh?:hysterical:

Ahhhhhhhhh ha ha ha ha Janine!
Even better would be me storing my snacks inside the pouffed out blouson ;)
"Chips? Sure right here tucked safely inside my dress!" ;)
