Country Sweetheart | Vintage 1950s Sweetheart neckline Gingham Red white plaid Sash tie-back Button-down dress with POCKETS
How is it that plaid, gingham and red-white checks never get old? ;)
We love the details on this seemingly simple red/white checkered gingham dress. Things you may not see at first, but only if you look closely enough. Pretty much how we like to see everyone.
- Comfy cotton-mix material (no fabric tag but it feels like a cotton/linen mix to us)
- Sweetheart neckline
- Pearlised white flower buttons on the bust area (buttons are different in the skirt part of the dress)
- Attached sash tie-back
- POCKETS! Sometimes we don't even see them until we bring them back, and that's just the best bonus ever!
- Buttons down all the way to the hem!
Pinned?: No. But back-ties were cinched to show how it looks when tied.
