  • Bust 34”

  • Waist free

  • Hip free

Measurements taken flat:

  • Shoulder to shoulder 15”

  • Length 53”

  • Sleeve length 24”

Ever since we started selling online, I have had so much fun researching these labels, some that I have never seen before! Like this one: Josefa was called “The Mother of Mexican Fashion Design”.  Her garments were never massed produced and were handmade by local women. Elizabeth Taylor discovered her and became a big fan. As a result, these dresses are pretty rare! And very “haute hippie”.
