This is a fabulous Marika Blue vintage 1980's summer dress in a white cotton and linen blend window pane textured lightweight fabric.  We acquired several Marika Blue dresses from an estate that had fabulous avant garde clothing from the 1970's and 1980's. Most of her pieces were made by Japanese designers, but we can see how Marika Blu fit into her wardrobe! 

The collar of the dress is ribbed and there are silver tone textured buttons down the center front. The front of the dress is pleated and the back has a long box pleat down the center back seam with a buttoned flap closure close to the hem. When this is buttoned the dress is slightly more fixed at the knees and when it is worn open, it is full. The 3/4 length sleeves have the same flap button closures, which make them slightly more cinched at the cuffs.
