This 1950s vintage cotton dress is a real gem. To wear it, simply slip it on over your head. Since it's an old piece, be gentle when putting it on and taking it off to avoid any unnecessary damage. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to hand - wash this dress in cold water with a mild detergent. Don't wring it out forcefully, just gently squeeze out the excess water and lay it flat to dry. Also, keep it away from sharp objects to prevent snags. With proper care, this dress will continue to be a part of your wardrobe for a long time.
