Scandalous.
Actresses wore it when they wanted to be “accidentally” discovered.
Seemingly shy types made it a point to wear dresses like this, from Newport to Main Line Philadelphia country clubs and interesting places everywhere.
Anywhere, actually, a beachhead was needed.
Just the right image of innocence and well, innocence.
Which translates into something else entirely.
Our version has just the right amount of “almost” innocence, too.
Retro Sweetheart Dress (No. 3430). Piping emphasizes classic sweetheart neckline in a 100% silk satin weave. Lower scoop at back neck. Seven horizontal bias cut panels around entire skirt for lovely lilt as you move. Added self-fabric sash.
