Description:

Item: 1970s long sleeve shirt dress by Femo Sport in a cotton blend — deadstock condition, with a good weight and substance to the fabric. Two-tone blue throughout: a deep teal ground with large-scale bright cyan floral motifs, the flowers bold and graphic in the manner of the era. Wide pointed collar, full button placket with dark buttons, chest pocket, belted waist with a self-fabric tie, and buttoned cuffs. A well-constructed, confident piece with real presence.

Era: 1970s

Brand: Femo Sport

Condition: Deadstock — unworn and unused.

Provenance Note: The tonal print is a strong design choice — working entirely within the blue spectrum, the contrast between the deep teal ground and the bright cyan flowers is sharp and graphic without the need for additional colour. Large-scale floral prints of this kind were a hallmark of early 1970s fashion, and this one is well-executed: the forms simplified and bold, the repeat generous. The shirt dress cut with its wide collar, belted waist and buttoned cuffs is a classic of the period, and the weight of the fabric gives the dress a structure and drape that lighter cotton blends of the era often lacked. In unsworn condition, this is a piece that has come through fifty years entirely intact.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected. Any notable marks, damage, or repairs will always be clearly mentioned. This natural wear is part of what gives genuine vintage its individuality and authenticity. True vintage should not be confused with modern second-hand clothing

We photograph all garments using a professional, studio-grade imaging system designed to show colour, texture, and shape as accurately as possible. This setup was built specifically to give a true representation of each piece and avoid misleading presentation; however, we do not take photos of inside the garment. While we take great care in inspecting every piece, with true vintage it is always possible that a minor detail may be missed.

Sizing Notes:

Please compare these measurements to a similar item you already own, laid flat (rather than measuring your body). Start with the bust measurement, then check length. Vintage sizing runs small and cuts vary significantly from modern equivalents, so the measurements listed are the best guide to fit.

Our modern sizing estimates are based on bust measurements using the following sizing scale:

UK 6 (30–31")

UK 8 (32–33")

UK 10 (34–35")

UK 12 (36–37")

UK 14 (38–39")

UK 16 (40–41")

UK 18 (42–43")

UK 20 (44–45")

For jackets, knitwear, sweaters, and padded outerwear, we grade one size down to allow for structure, lining, bulk.or layering.
