The story:

Simple. Chic. Pockets. 

This retro 1950s 1960s bowling alley zip-front shift dress would be perfect with strappy retro-style wooden-soled heeled sandals, red nails and lips and a cute hair-do. 

The solid one-colour makes it perfect for pairing with shoes, bags and accessories and the red zip and stitching gives it an edge (literally).
