This romantic dress features the Cupids Bow neckline on a darted bodice for a super flattering fit. With cap sleeves to offer a more formal look and all made from a super luxurious Ivory Silk Dupion. The neckline and waist are trimmed in satin to add definition. The Silk dupion is used to full effect in the Tea length Circle skirt where its lightness and natural ability to hold its shape offers the most dramatic swish! We have overlayed this in a double layer of fine tulle which gives the dress a soft and dreamy look, truely reminiscent of the Fifties. The dress is also seen with a Peacock Blue silk dupion sash, this sits over the waistline of the dress and adds a beautiful finishing touch, the sash is an optional extra and can be made in different colours. Our darted bodice is not boned at all, and so it needs to be worn with a supportive bra to give you the most flattering fit. 

This dress can be worn with a petticoat (as photographed - petticoat not included) to create a full 1950's silhouette or left to hang naturally for a more casual effect. It can also be worn with a silk self tie bow sash, as seen on the photo of the dress from behind (not included in this sale).
