This lovely 1940 cotton floral dress from Elysian is in beautiful vintage condition and has a Summery floral print in cream, orange, blue, green and brown. The dress features a striking asymmetrical neckline with a single strap showcasing the left shoulder and a feminine frill over the right which spirals around the back and over the bust. The drop waistline slants at a diagonal towards the right hip and is embellished with a pretty peplum detail with a fabric floral rosette atop of the left hip. There is some subtle starburst stitching at the centre front of the bodice to enhance the bust. The bodice fastens at the side with a combination of popper and hook eye closures. This charming piece has a wonderfully elegant line and would best fit a UK size 8/ US size 4 or a UK size 10/ US 6 due to petit bust measurement.
