Hanamee | Vintage 1950s 1960s pastel yellow silky Dress with button back and butterfly print

The story:

For many, spring may mean pink. Cherry blossoms we yearn to see one day. But perhaps the welcome of yellows, lightly dusting the fields could also be a welcoming sight. 

This pastel yellow dress with flitting butterflies is an absolutely meadow of blossoming emotions. A gentle introduction to the intensity and bright yellows of summer perhaps? 

The fabric is soft and silky! Matching fabric buttons down the back of the top and zips up at the skirt from waist down. 

Pinned?: No.
