Vintage Kaiser Franz Josef Dirndl Dress Size 42 Green Deer Made in Austria.
Beautiful long vintage Austrian dirndl by Kaiser Franz Josef, made in Austria and labelled size 42.
A particularly striking traditional piece in a very dark navy/black cotton fabric with small forest-green deer motifs throughout. The dress is paired with a deep emerald/forest-green slightly lustrous apron and matching ruffled trim around the distinctive square neckline.
The fitted bodice features a row of silver-tone buttons with attractive natural patina, while the long full skirt creates a classic Austrian dirndl silhouette. The subtle deer pattern combined with the dark green details makes this an especially elegant and unusual piece.
