Description
This bright pink, yellow, and orange psychedelic flower power print 1960s paper dress by Mars of Asheville was never worn, although it has been removed from its original packaging. Mars Waste Basket Boutique paper dresses were so popular at one point in the late 1960s that the company could not keep up with orders for their fun frocks! The dress has some dinginess along the fold lines from its long storage, and 2 faint marks on the front bodice (see photos). These marks are all moderately well hidden by the busy print. This groovy 60s A-line or tent style paper dress was designed to fit loosely, as shown. I estimate that it will fit best on a 34-inch bust or smaller. It is not pinned to the mannequin, who has around a 34 bust (32B). See measurements for more details.
