Geronima | Vintage 1960s 1970s Purple giraffes print embroidered collar long sleeve dress

Let’s face it, who doesn’t need a giraffe-print dress is purple? We didn’t think we did, until we saw this, and perhaps it’s a good thing it is not in our size.

Now, we will let it go and hope she can bless someone else who loves bit of quirkiness mixed with a whole lot of gentle femininity and making a big bold first impression. A bit like how giraffes are like, really ;)
