Description

The listing, NWOT's Retro 50's Housewife Halter Dress Size L has ended.

This Brand New dress I accidentally ordered twice. Rather than hassling to send it back I decided to list it! This is a Bandage Halter Dress with a zipper back that stretches.
Size L - Bust 38.5 Waist: 31.5 Hips: 42.5 Shoulder to Hem: 44.5
I wear a crinoline with mine but it looks great either way. I get a ton of compliments every time I wear this dress!
Sorry NO Gin on this one! Just want to relax and let things bid out this time! Starting nice and low so good luck ladies!!!
I have several dresses like this and absolutely LOVE them. I call them my Stepford wife dresses...I wear them when I need to be festive and add a crinoline for extra puff or as is for a regular night out. I can't believe I ordered the same dress twice. It will be interesting to see how many people like the same style I do. I know I get a lot of questions and comments when I where them - where did you get it and nice dress. These are very flattering and although it comes with a tie belt I opt for a solid stretch belt to cinch it in better.

Questions & Comments

I love this style and I want one so so bad but everyone I've seen on here r always the wrong size for me. I'm a xlg or xxlg. I want one so bad. Could u tell me were u ordered it from plz so I can get one before it turns cold and I want get to wear it. Plz

These dresses only go up to a 40" bust and a 34" waist. That is their XL...if enough people are interested I may pick up a couple of different designs in this style and list them. PM me and let me know what size you would like to see! I will search for some for plus size ladies as they should be able to wear these cute styles too! If I can't find any I will sew one myself!

This is cute I would love to get it but my chest is 34 F, so there is no way.

Sorry, I do feel for you. It can be frustrating to see clothes that you can't have. I have a unique build and I learned to see and alter my own clothes. I made a dress, without using a pattern, and it is perfect for me. I am thinking about making some of these for the bigger ladies since they don't sell them.

My chest is to large for this dress so I am having a boobooface moment. This dress is gorgeous and I would love to have it.

Aug 21st, 2015 at 11:35:28 AM PDT by

How close is it? The back does have elastic that gives extra room in the top. Also being a halter is more flexible because the length of the ties. I am a 34DD or 36D and I don't use the zipper but simply pull it on over my head. There is room in the chest area and it would fit up to a 40D or DD. More than that would probably be pushing it. Thanks for looking.

Yea I know what you mean, When I saw this one I thought it would be an easy on for me to make. The thrift stores always have old patterns to pick-up for cheap.
I've lost 93 pounds and am looking to rebuild my wardrobe.

Aug 21st, 2015 at 12:18:45 PM PDT by

I like making dresses without a pattern and just thinking it through. It's a challenge!

Aug 21st, 2015 at 10:04:37 PM PDT by

I wear a size 16 womens, do you think you could make one in my size?

Aug 27th, 2015 at 4:30:59 AM PDT by

I would need a lot more information. Measurements in inches around the bust, waist, and your length from shoulder to knee....I am not sure if I am going to do it. Depends on the level of interest - will probably make one and list it and see how it goes over.

darn top area will fit me and waist will fit me but hips not so sure. is that flat or all the way around

Aug 25th, 2015 at 11:26:19 PM PDT by

It's A-line so hips are usually a much wider open area as the circle skirt flares out for volume

Aug 26th, 2015 at 12:30:36 AM PDT by

I thought I saw the crinolines somewhere from China. . I like the maxi dresses...they come large enough...but I found a place to get some larger

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 11:33:32 AM PDT by

I got some from a place in CA. You have to really pay attention to the length for the ones from overseas!!!

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 5:23:20 PM PDT by

If you do post plus size I will definitely bid, I love the dress.

Aug 29th, 2015 at 2:19:18 PM PDT by

I dont have enough credits right now but please let me know when you put up more of these already a fan

Aug 28th, 2015 at 11:30:29 AM PDT by

Bit of a stomach and bubble butt, so these dress work nicely for the lower half!

Aug 26th, 2015 at 3:39:38 AM PDT by

These are wonderful for minimizing below waist areas!

Aug 26th, 2015 at 3:38:01 PM PDT by

36b and a size 12. I call them my I love Lucy dresses!

Aug 26th, 2015 at 3:38:26 AM PDT by

You would need to know the inches around the bust and waist. Bra size doesn't work for fitting a dress...

Aug 26th, 2015 at 3:39:39 PM PDT by

If you do make these, I will definitely be a customer! My daughter and I love them but can't ever afford or find them that are reasonable. F & W.

Aug 25th, 2015 at 9:26:43 PM PDT by

What size do you run so I know what is needed?

Aug 25th, 2015 at 10:36:27 PM PDT by

pretty

Do you think it would fit a 34 DDD? F&W please fan back.

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 11:05:32 AM PDT by

It would be easier for you to measure around the fullest part of your bust around the back to get your actual chest measurement and not the cup size. I wear a 34DD or 36D and my measurements are 38" around. There is still room in the chest area and the elastic is not even being stretched on me. Technically it states 38.5' for this size but I believe it would accommodate up to 40" comfortably. Everyone is built differently and it is impossible for me to know if it would work for you. Use the measurements I gave and see if your numbers are close. I took pictures of the elastic panel as it is a good sizeable panel.

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 11:18:18 AM PDT by

What is the brand or label name please?

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 9:27:05 AM PDT by

It's unbranded. The only tag it came with says L.

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 11:08:07 AM PDT by

Love this dress! Awesome design! F&W! =)

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 6:01:18 AM PDT by

Thank you.

Aug 23rd, 2015 at 11:06:27 AM PDT by

For ladies looking to purchase this style in Plus sizes there are 2 options I found to be reputable - Torrid: has several designs up to a 6X. Rockabillyboutique: based in the U.S., limited designs, up to 4X. Both places are similarly priced so check them out.

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 9:08:33 AM PDT by

Does the waist stretch to bigger. I have a waist issue. Every other part of the dress will fit me but my waist is hard to fit. My measurements are 38, 42, 48. My husband says I look like a pair. But I would love to have one these dresses in my size. Let me know if you have one or can find one. Thank you so much :-)

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 12:54:33 AM PDT by

Sorry but they don't make them to accommodate you. I am considering making some bigger ones this style but with more stretchable areas in the waist. Fan me and keep an eye out as I will list them here.

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 8:30:47 AM PDT by

i have several as well i call them my donna reed dresses...i have halter style for nights i wanna be flirty and i have the ones with backs n sleeves frpm short mid to long.. not to mention cardigan sweaters to match n mix with them.. ive made several for myself and my girls since u cant find them in lil girls sizes.. and we actually sewed the petti coats to go under ours the girls wear bloomer ahorts n petti coats..

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 12:43:00 AM PDT by

I have the exact same thing! I have about 8 different designs in this style and a couple with the sleeve design. I don't want to have the crinoline sewn in as it doesn't have the versatility to go with or without it and it's fuller with the crinoline separate. I do rarely not wear a crinoline with it but I can wear one crinoline with several different dresses when they are separate. The bloomers would be super cute for girls! I have seen them for girls but I don't have any children in that age group.

Aug 22nd, 2015 at 8:37:58 AM PDT by

these do run small because I have a 42 inch bust and a 34 inch waist and
I wear a xxl. But I love it...would love to know here you found a crinoline!

Aug 21st, 2015 at 6:53:09 PM PDT by

I do children's parties and have about 7 crinoline various lengths and colors.

Aug 21st, 2015 at 10:05:53 PM PDT by

I may bid on then. Usually I can't get into a large because of the cheatel region.

Aug 21st, 2015 at 3:00:05 PM PDT by

You should measure the inches around that you are as its different than your cup size.

Great style and great dress. I'd wear it with a stretchy belt to. I have one that would go perfect. F&W&B

Aug 20th, 2015 at 3:52:00 PM PDT by

I wear a stretch belt and prefer it over the ribbon belt it comes with.

Aug 20th, 2015 at 11:19:32 PM PDT by

Where was it made, please?

Aug 20th, 2015 at 1:32:14 PM PDT by

I turned it inside out and the only tag was the tiny L one. Unbranded and no material identification or care instructions. I don't have the answer...sorry!

Aug 20th, 2015 at 11:25:16 PM PDT by

i love this style, i will be watching and bidding. i fanned you, so i wont miss any of your auctions,
