1960s Young Innocents by Arpeja Cotton Floral Batik Print Caftan Dress designer-sarmi Made of a 1940s moss

Made of a 1940s moss crepe the color is a very light taupe with a fantastic graphic design on the jacket that emphasizes its nipped in waist and fitted silhouette

There is a teeny watermark on the bodice that may come out with an additional cleaning (supersize the close up of the bodice to see - it has been priced to accommodate)

The skirt twirls out from the waist and is amazingly full - it reminds me of a skater skirt or a 1950s circle skirt it has so much fabric in it

It appears to  close completely up the neck with a series of buttons but upon inspection you realize that these are purely decorative
