Lady Draper | Vintage 1960s 1970s Black drapery and lace Semi-formal Dress
We love adding to our "Solids" tab in our all-new "Shop-by-pattern" section ;)
When there are no patterns, the silhouette, the way the garment is cut, the smallest details can make the look special.
We all need a little black dress, and this we love for the front drapery, and the peek of lace under. The half sleeves cover without overwhelming the look and the lightly flared skirt gives just that hint of sexiness. The fabric, ever so lightly chiffon.
Pinned?: No.
