This charming, shirt-waisted, day dress was recreated from a vintage dress from 1935. Daisy has a lot of details found in designs from this period.
The bodice has gathers that are set into the shoulder seam and tucks at the waist. It closes with 4 red flower buttons and has a shaped collar. The front of the skirt has six pleats top stitched into place and then left untacked below the knee to serve as kick pleats. This green and white checked dress has puffed sleeves and upturned cuffs.
Of special interest to dancers, the back of the bodice has an action pleat that creates a tailored line while allowing for full range of movement for the arms.
Machine washable in delicate cycle with cold water or dry cleanable.
