Peacock Pink | Vintage 1950s 1960s Embroidered peacock Cheongsam-inspired Dress

The story:

Simple with a twist? This pink-muave dress has all the cool combinations of being traditional, retro and modern at the same time! 

We love the gold-lined peacock peeking from the dark-black seams. Everything is so perfectly done on this cheongsam-inspired dress. Perfect for that special occasion or for the everyday too! 

And you can't see it in the picture, but the left side of the skirt is pleated, just such a cute detail to have.
