Emmeline Dress - Antique Mauve
Inspired by a most beloved vintage 1940s dress, the Emmeline Dress is rendered in our vintage 1930s reproduction "Forget Me Not" floral print in a lightweight cotton. The neckline is adorned with meticulously placed darts, pointed panel at the waist, and godets at the side hems of the skirt lend to Emmeline's decidedly vintage silhouette. French lace accent the long puffed sleeves at the cuffs and along the hem. Self ties and a hidden side zipper ensure a perfect feminine fit. Every stitch and delicate details of the Emmeline is our loving ode to a bygone era.
