1950s cream broderie anglaise dress
Fabulously feminine lace day dress!
This dress reminds me of vanilla ice cream on a hot day... fashioned from the most delicious broderie anglaise, this classic 1950s dress has a feast of features: sweet Peter Pan collar, short sleeves with turned back cuffs, metal side zip and a full, swishy skirt. The bodice has a top layer of broderie anglaise and then a more opaque fabric underneath from the bust down. The skirt has the same two layers of fabric, and finishes in a beautifully scalloped hem. Yummy all over. Click on the picture for a close up...

Vintage means pre-owned and pre-loved. If you expect off-the-peg perfection, vintage may not be for you. However, if you want an individual sense of style, then you're looking in the right place!
