MODELS COAT Print Housedress Shift Snap Front Closure Pockets VINTAGE Flawed

MODELS COAT Print Housedress Shift Snap Front Closure Pockets VINTAGE Flawed Models Coat is a vintage clothing brand known for its distinctive housedresses and loungewear, primarily active from the mid-20th century. The brand was a part of Swirl, Ltd., which was established in 1904. The Models Coat trademark was registered in 1963 and became particularly popular in the 1970s and 1980s. The garments were known for their practical, comfortable designs, often featuring colorful patterns and details like embroidery and rick-rack trim. These dresses were ideal for homemakers due to their ease of wear and maintenance. Despite the decline in U.S. textile manufacturing in the late 20th century, Swirl continued to produce Models Coat garments. The company still operates today, manufacturing housedresses in the U.S. and Asia under both the Swirl and Models Coat brands. This dress has a whimsical print, featuring some sort of trolley or wagon. It has one small breast pocket and one larger hip pocket on the opposite side. There is a stain as shown in photo and a little bit of discoloration of the burgundy color also shown but very difficult to see. I have listed this as a loose small, based on measurements and fit. It may work for a medium, but since it’s a house dress, I believe it’s meant to be worn looser. Approx measurements, 18” underarm to underarm, 15” shoulders, 37” long. ✅ Same or next business day shipping ✅ Bundle & save!
