Dress

One lady's cream and orange cotton sundress. The halter neck dress has ties of exaggerated lengths that allow the fabric to act as a long scarf that drapes down the wearer's back or around the shoulders. The skirt extends to mid-calf and is hand-painted with Puerto Rican designs and images. The skirt has a side zipper and hook-and-eye closure. A label located inside the waistband of the skirt reads "Galana de la Antilla Original - Caribe, Hilton, Puerto Rico."
