« Marcia », a mid-1930s style stripey day dress

This darling mid- 1930s inspired stripey cotton is the epitome of the love of playing with stripes on a dress in the thirties. Cut on the bias it screams geometric art deco heaven. The panelling in the front skirt creates a fun zig-zag effect and the back has also an inverted v created by the centre seam, both in the bodice and skirt. It features three little pockets, two on front of bodice and one on the skirt, cut on the grain that contrast with the bias of the rest of the dress. The panelling of the bodice with the centre seam creates a t, extending to the short kimono type sleeves. The belt features a vintage bakelite buckle. The v- neck collar follows the overall geometric style of the dress. Snap fasteners at the side.
