Beautiful Rayon, below knee-length 1940s style dress in a floral print of Fuchsia  & Off-White on a Midnight Blue ground. A-line skirt, authentic close-fitting V-neckline,  short Butterfly sleeves, lapped back metal zipper. The bows on shoulder, waist and upper hip create a wonderful 1940s silhouette. Lined bodice. Since many clients in the past highly valued the possibility to wear a dress with or without shoulder pads (depending on the occasion), matching detachable shoulder pads can be ordered in addition. For everyone who loves to add even more authenticity and structure to this dress.

 

Complete your look with the matching Off-White Halo Hat "Summer Scent" (as seen in first photo).
