Stunning 1970s Hawaiian print dress by Malihini
Hawaii.
Self belted Empire waist....sleeveless bodice
with square neckline. Center front inverted
pleat in long narrow skirt.
The print is exceptionally beautiful. Oversized
hibiscus blossoms in luminous shades of oranges,
yellows and browns. The fabric is cotton
"bark cloth". As a full length
dress it is quite dramatic and would make
a bold statement. Not so brave? The dress
could easily be shortened for more versatility.
Use the extra fabric to make a matching bag!

Very Lilliesque hand print cotton dress from
the 1960s. The label is missing from this
dress but I am fairly certain it is Lily
Pulitzer. If not then another equally talented
designer. The cotton has a lavender background
with green white and magenta "Mod Tropics"
flower print. Sleeveless fitted bodice with
novel notched collar. Thick white cotton
lace defines the center front and waistline.
Nicely cut A-line skirt with just enough
drape.
The dress is constructed in the Lily tradition
with white cotton batiste underlining and
lace hem binding.
The size is a generous medium around a modern
10.
Bust 43"''...
Waist 33''....
Hips 44''...
