RELIST: Vintage Italian navy blue lace dress/tunic - 8


Up for sale is a vintage dress from my collection, label Alba Fornari and made in Italy.

It's labeled an Italian size 42, made of 87% cotton with 13% "poliammide" (nylon). It zips up in the back. The lace is what drew me to it, it's a soft-yet-sturdy kind of fabric and very well-made. It's fully lined except for the sleeves, where the lace will cover your upper arms.

I should add that I'm about 5'10" and I only wear it as dress with thick dark tights or as a tunic with jeans, as it just covers my tush. It also has a 5-inch slit in the back. If you're shorter, it may work better; in any case, I've provided the measurements below.

Measurements, lying flat:

Shoulder to shoulder: 14.75 inches
Bust (underarm to undearm) - 16 inches
Waist - 15 inches
Hips: 15.5 inches
Length: 33.75 inches

Please note that I don't take returns, unless I've grossly misrepresented the dress-- like I say it's blue but you receive something red instead. As this is a case with European and vintage sizing, please know your measurements. I fit into this best when I was an 8/10, but everyone is shaped differently.

Your price: SOLD - NO LONGER AVAILABLE

  2. Hello,

    I am interested in the dress if nobody else has purchased it yet. It looks gorgeous.

    But I would like to make sure it would fit me: do you have a waist measurement for the dress?

    Thanks so much!
