Retro-80’s goodness brought up to date with a 21st century silhouette, this great style is perfect for all kinds of dress-weight fabrics...try washed linen, chambray, crepe, shirting... even a good quality T-shirting. Semi-fitted pull-on Dress has a V-neckline with optional collar, and a choice of short or elbow length dolman sleeves. Dropped waist bodice features concealed closures, shaped front & back princess seams, and gathers over the front bust.
