Brand story: A true piece of history from the 1940s WWII home-front era, when women made beautiful clothes by hand, and exactly the kind of authentic period piece film and television costume designers search for. This day dress is in a deep aubergine wool flecked with pink. It has the iconic asymmetric wrapped bodice of the early to mid-1940s, fastened with fabric-covered buttons across the chest and hip. Light pink piping traces the diagonal seams and the cuffs of the fitted three-quarter sleeves, above a slim, below-the-knee skirt.
Year: 1940-1949. Fabric: Wool.
