Hostess Dress - white

Story

This charming, summery dress is perfect for a wedding or other special occasion. The classic cut hearkens back to the 50's with its full, pleated skirt. It features an empire waistline, wide waist sash, scoop neck, front and back bodice darts, knife pleated skirt, and shoulders cut to cover bra straps perfectly. Total dress length at the centre front from neckline to hem is 29.25" on the size 4, so the hemline will hit about 3-4" above the knee.

Made from and lined with 100% cotton. The outer fabric is white with a purple and brown floral border print at the hem, with a slight sheen. The matching brown sash has long ties at back and is tacked at side seams so it won't wiggle out of place. Lined in white cotton broadcloth so nothing shows through. Invisible zip at the centre back. Clean finished and fully lined. Dry clean only for best results.

Available in sizes 4, 6 and 8. Size chart:
