Clementine | Vintage 1940s Floral print flowy chiffon half-sleeve dress
My Darling Clementine. The shawl collar on this 1940s rayon beauty brings us back to yesteryear.
The gentle, feminine yet strong dispositions of the women of that time. The sense that things were not a bed of roses, but wherein lies the determination to still be joyful despite everything.
Women. Let's celebrate the rare and wonderful breed we are.
