A winning combination of top quality craftmanship combined with a plethora of authentic features. Prepare to feel like a princess! A super flattering cut based on early 1940s styles where the higher neckline became fashionable. This dress has been designed to be as faithful as possible to these styles. This is a silhouette with a strong shoulder shape which we have enhanced by the sleeve design style, shoulder pad and a high neckline. You will notice the lovely style details of the shirring at the shoulder and the pleats under the bust that flow into the V shape waist panel. This has a real figure enhancing effect. By popular demand, we have made this in a longer 'midi' length approx 91cm from waist.
