Button-through dress with geometric print
Sportscraft was one of a wide range of labels manufactured by Dunedin business, Ross & Glendining. Faced with financial difficulties in the 1960s, they sold the label to Fashions Limited, who acquired another manufacturer Classic Manufacturing at around the same time.
This dress was manufactured after the label had been bought by Fashions Limited. It was owned by Moyra Kyle who worked in the office at Classic Fashions.
