Sammy | Vintage 1960s 1970s retro disco mod cheesecloth Vertical stripes Shift Dress

The story:

Long vertical stripes that elongate are so helpful, aren't they :) And if you're like us and don't particularly love body-con dresses, this shift dress that lightly skims the body instead of hugs is actually quite a dream to wear (and comfy too!) 

This one has an interesting mix of colours that cross between autumn and winter shades of yellows and cool blues, greys and a punch of purple. 

Zips up at the back. 

Pockets are decorative & functional. 

Pinned?: No.
