This is an outstanding handmade Americana costume from the 1970’s. Likely Betsey Ross inspired. All printed material is a cotton/ cotton blend mid weight material. The white is more sheer and lightweight. The top has a wide scooped neckline with a pointed hemline and trumpet sleeves. The bodice is lined in white. A back metal zipper closure with a single hook & eye. The skirt is full with lots of gathered material that opens in the front to reveal the longer striped under-skirting. Part of the outer star skirting is lined in the red & white striped fabric. The back closure is another metal zipper and strangely no button or hook & eye. Miss Muffet style hat is one size fits most. The elastic has been replaced.
