This dress is classic Laura Ashley, with a 1980s silhouette that borrows from the 1940s. The color is a warm pale peach (almost reads ecru!) with a very subtle ditzy floral pattern— one of those "non-print" prints that's as versatile as a solid. This dress features a yoked drop waist, V neck with gathered chest, and low armholes with short dolman sleeves. The combination of the volume at the sleeves, the fullness of the skirt, and the waist panel creates an hourglass silhouette. The gathered chest is also very flattering. Not to be missed: it has pockets! Closes in the back with a zip closure. Made in Ireland of 100% cotton. The heart locket necklace pictured is also available in my shop!Measurements: *This dress will fit a range of sizes; it is pictured here (unpinned) on a US size 2/4 but is meant for a larger size.
