Adorable late 1940s to early 1950s New Look day dress in pastel purple, aqua and yellow striped cotton. It has a fitted pleated waist and short sleeves. There are buttons above the waist and a side metal zipper. The hem is very wide and could be let down to add length, see left side of last photo for picture of the hem width.
