Ivory Cotton Children's Dress with Eyelet Embroidery

1950s · 1960s · American

A simple children's dress in ivory cotton featuring short kimono-style sleeves and a gathered waist with attached sash belt. The bodice shows delicate eyelet embroidery around the neckline in a scalloped pattern. The fabric appears to have a subtle ribbed texture throughout. The skirt portion is gathered at the waist creating gentle fullness that falls to approximately knee length. The construction is straightforward with minimal seaming, typical of practical children's garments from the 1960s. The neckline is round and modest, finished with the eyelet trim that adds decorative detail to an otherwise utilitarian design.
