A beauty to behold, this original 1930's cream cotton voile day dress, with an enchanting blooming carnation and wild flower pattern, in muted shades of green, orange, yellow and blush pink, is the perfect piece to welcome the warmer weather with.
The rounded neckline is framed by a wide rounded collar, which sits above the shoulder line and creates the illusion of short fluttered sleeves and finishes in an open cut along the top of the backline. The elegant straight cut of the bodice, accents the A line silhouette of the skirt-line which features three delicate tiers, creating a lightly fluttered hemline. This truly enchanting dress showcases the iconic silhouette of the era. This dress is sheer and will need to be worn with a slip to conceal ones modesty.
