Trelis | Vintage 1980s-does-1950s fun flora leaf graphic novelty print Full-skirt dress
One of our favourite silhouettes - boxy and comfy at the top, fitted/elastic waist and a generously flared skirt. Buttons up the back and huge pockets at the side.
And a brilliant, floral print.
Ta-dah. We would wear this all day, everyday if we could. It has such a happy vibe about her, a joy that just comes from the combination of colours and prints, the white linings that give it an almost batik, but lighter, look. The V-neck gives it a bit of sex-appeal, but just that little bit.
If it's a green dress you need. This would be THE one. ;)
