This way and that | Vintage 1950s 1960s Turquoise and Indigo print Checkered and stripes Midi Dress
The story:
Lines going this way and that maketh a real cool not-checkered-not-striped pattern. And the mix of turquoise green and indigo blue on the same side of the color wheel also gives the diagonal and horizontal stripes a calming sense of cohesion.
We love the ease of this dress and her loose-fit silhouette. The black piping cleverly holds the whole look together!
