1940s Pink And Navy Blue Abstract Print Rayon Day Dress
1940s Pink and Navy Geometric Print Rayon Crepe Day Dress
A beautifully tailored 1940s day dress in soft rayon crepe, printed with a small geometric pattern in dusky pink against a navy ground. The neat stand collar and button-through bodice give way to a softly pleated skirt falling from a fitted, defined waist — a silhouette that has lost none of its appeal eighty years on.
Equally at home in a vintage wardrobe or styled into contemporary dressing, this is a dress built on genuinely good tailoring.
