🚫SOLD🚫 VINTAGE 80s Pink & Black Polka Dot ILGWU Union Made Midi Dress

The kind of dress you’d wear when the band starts playing your favorite old tune, and you’re twirled across the worn wooden floors beneath strings of glowing lights. This 1980s Lady Carol Petites dress feels like a treasured memory — a whisper of Pretty Woman, a nod to swing dance halls, and a garden party all in one. The vivid hot pink, scattered with inky black polka dots, feels playful yet timeless. The softly gathered waist and ruched back make for an effortlessly flattering fit, while the gentle swish of the midi skirt invites you to dance — whether on a polished floor or barefoot on the grass. Black textured buttons and practical pockets give it both charm and purpose, much like the dresses that came before it — made to be worn, lived in, and remembered. 🌸 T-strap heels + ribbon ponytail for garden swing dances 📚 Silk scarf + Mary Janes for librarian-chic afternoons ☕️ Ballet flats + market tote for floral market mornings 🐚 Espadrilles + straw hat for cottagecore picnics Good vintage condition — one faint spot near the hem and a loose button (see photos).
