1970 prom dress 1970's High School Diary Entry 'Senior Cord' Prom DressA truly one of a kind snapshot of late 20th century teenage Americana. This was once a classic late '70s prom dress by Bill Levkoff, but an artist of unknown origins has elevated this into a moody teenage masterpiece. Due to the cultural references amongst other clues, it appears this colorful transformation transpired in the 1990's.

A truly one of a kind snapshot of late 20th century teenage Americana. This was once a classic late '70s prom dress by Bill Levkoff, but an artist of unknown origins has elevated this into a moody teenage masterpiece. Due to the cultural references amongst other clues, it appears this colorful transformation transpired in the 1990's. The 1970's Levkoff dress is composed of a beige satin and cut in an empire silhouette, a popular style for prom dresses of the era. The simple piece serves as a canvas for a one-of-a-kind confessional. At first glance, the slightly juvenile scribbling appears to be inspired by the classic 'Senior Cords', an American classic for High Schoolers from the 1920's-1980's. This piece differs in it's poetic and long-winded diary entry style composition. A wearable work of art. The semi-sheer outer layer allows for the base of swirling doodles to peak through. Playful, expressive, and undeniably unique. A real conversation starter! 
Great vintage condition. Light signs of wear at the armpits with light color bleeding of the writing. No yellowing perspiration stains, though.
Labelled a US 8.

good for summer but not true linen
Size: 12, Color: White, Size: 12, Color: White
Took off a star because they aren't linen! They are polyester with some linen and have a slight look of linen. They are thin and see through, so in that aspect its great for summer, but the lining inside the suit would get hot. It is a very nice neutral color that looks sleek. It is worth its price given it is a 3 piece. Needs ironing after arrival, and it is great for recitals and formal weddings and events. Comfortable, lined well, even the pockets are lined! Speaking of which, my son carries his phone and needs pockets at all times. Zipper and buttons work well. Sizing is accurate. There are loops for belt. The bow tie is brught white with 2 silver tiny polka dots! Bow tie is adjustable and easily clips on. Overall recommend it!

Great suit!
Size: 8, Color: Mint Green, Size: 8, Color: Mint Green
This suit is gorgeous. The color is gorgeous The fit is great. I like pretty much everything about it. I even like the clasp in the bow tie. Way better than the snaps or the hooks… And my son likes it! After telling me he felt embarrassed to wear a suit like two weeks ago, he was actually really liking this one and was trying to think of somewhere he could wear it! *please ignore the straight-out-of-the-package rumpling in the pictures* The fabric is nice. It’s really well made. It still fits a teeny smidge big on my son, but he’ll be in it in no time. It’s a great value. I recommend it.

THESE ARE NOT LINEN - 70%Polyester, 25% Linen, 5% Spandex
Size: 5, Color: Light Grey
Moms be ware this is NOT LINEN! This is 70% Polyester and 25% linen and 5% spandex, so the listing description and material details are misleading. If you're expecting the super soft, lightweight, breathable linen fabric we know and love , this is not it. This is reminicent of those old school curtains. The suit is cute however; but what boys suit isn't cute for that matter? I would say these run a little big. My son who is 5 normally fits a bit snug in a 5 but the length of a 6 is too long. I ordered a 5 and these are long on him, but the suit jacket fits perfectly. They do seem to be sewn well and constructed with quality in mind. I'm just disappointed by the misleading linen claim
