Dorothy Catherine Dress in Maple Lawn

$265.00

 

 

The Dorothy Catherine has a similar history to the Rosemary Dress. One of RevivALL’s expert seamstresses, Cora, found this dress in her Mother’s closet after she passed away. It was actually Cora’s elder daughter that spotted the potential of this dress. We always love a good wrap dress and have been wanting to make one for years, so when Cora brought me this idea, it was an no brainer.

Why do we love this new dress so much? Adjustable tie closure makes it an easy fit, the smocking at the shoulder adds a touch of romance, and the cap sleeves are reminiscent of the 1940s. This fabric is a German rayon with a lovely drape. Models are wearing size extra small and medium. They also has it layered over the Vintage Style Midi Cotton Petticoat . Please note that because this dress is so adjustable, the size chart below lists base measurements. We also adjusted the pattern so the front bodice now has darts and doesn’t gape.

Deadstock German rayon floral fabric. Deadstock is what is left over when larger fashion houses discard their fabric and by using it, we are striving to keep more fabric out of landfills. This also ensures we are not participating in the new fabric industry, which is extremely harmful on our planet. Want to know more about deadstock fabric? Click here.
