Rosita | Vintage 1950s 1960s Big square checks Red grey black Plaid dress

Squares of deep, dark goodness. Like dark chocolate with a cherry and rum centre. Sweet but with a real kick ;) 

This has cute pleats down from both shoulders to the waistline, 3 cute buttons on the left shoulder and pockets! 

Pretty slight-scooped neckline gives it a linear line and the large checks would be a perfect base for a gold brooch (or a fun novelty one!) or 2. Check out our accessories section for some cute options ;)
