Women's Sizes XS-XXL or bust 30.5 in - 50 in. A lovely afternoon dress for parties or events. The bodice of our Garden Party Dress reflects the less constricting tailoring of the post-Edwardian era. Soft gathers below a square yoke and at the waist provide a comfortable fit. Two wide flanges emphasize the princess line. These were typically made of lace or eyelet as in View B. View A, our contemporary interpretation, has a self-bias bound jewel neckline, self-fabric flanges, and a gathered mid-calf length dirndl skirt. View, B, the traditional version, has a lowered square neckline. The ankle-length skirt is darted into the waistline for a very flattering, slimming fit, purchased lace or eyelet on teh flanges, cuffs, front yoke, and back add elegance and femininity. Both views feature three-quarter length sleeves eased into wide below-the-elbow cuffs and a buttoned center back opening. The straight cut of the skirt makes this dress a natural for border prints and eyelet. Suggested Fabrics: Soft, sheer to lightweight fabrics such as cotton batiste, voile, lawn, gauze, or eyelet; rayon challis; silks; wool challis or blends. Sizing and Yardage Chart (pdf)
