Sea Maiden | Vintage 1960s 1970s Burnt orange and browns Collared pin-striped Shirt Dress
The story:
Why Sea Maiden, you may ask, when all you see are browns and burnt oranges however gorgeous those hues might be?
Well, for sometimes that which is hidden, which no one can see, is the heart of it all.
If you look closely, you'll see that shining through (and there is some literal glint under the lights), are thin sea-blue pin stripes.
Perhaps also appropriate that the tag says "DelMare" (loosely translated in Italian - Of the sea).
*Has slight shoulder pads (small ones) which you could always remove if it's not your cup of tea.
Pinned?: No.
