This enchanting 1950's green and cream silk dress in an abstract pattern of leaves, set off by a decorative bow panel along the bodice, is the perfect piece to welcome the new season with.
The rounded neckline is framed by a simple shoulder line and short capped sleeves. The fitted bodice, is accented by a decorative central pointed seam panel below the bust-line that joins the bust in tailored darts. The pointed seam is edged with a green silk panel, that runs below the bust and threads through the central panel in a decorative double pleat bow edge detail. The cinched in waistline draws the eye to the elegant line of the skirt, completing this dress in a timeless silhouette.
