Team this great 1930's dress with a wide brimmed straw hat, or perhaps an adorable cloche, for a cool refreshing summer look.

So typical of the 1930's with is flowing form, the dress is sewn of silk chiffon fabric in a red and white color.  Clothing of the era were very feminine, soft lines, soft drapes.  This dress states it all.  It is of a simple construction with scoop round neck line, slightly dropped waist and a full circular skirt.  Mainly, it is the shoulder area, which gives this dress a dreamy dramatic flair.  The dress is a sleeveless style with large cape like sleeves, attached at the shoulders, the fabric reaches just above the elbow.   Like butterfly wings, if you will.  

As it is a loose fit, as many of the dresses from the time period, it slipped over the head.  There are no fastenings.

Oh, I think this is so beguiling chic.
