As with most 50’s style dresses, this silhouette is a lot of dress! The pleats are wide and the volume on the skirt section is substantial. But the bodice is pretty and the belt can be swapped out for something more to your liking. Also, it’s great quality fabric so the pleats hang straight down and stay put. Runs true to size and is really sweet on. You might like to match it with a cropped cardigan – or alternatively, a cheeky biker jacket for a little urban edge.
