1920s Kitty Dress & slip - Jade Georgette
Our asymmetric 1920s obsession continues! This time in a specially selected Jade green viscose georgette available as a made to order - due to limited fabric.
Named after Kitty Laverne, the unforgettable Louise Brooks character from the 1920s film A Social Celebrity, this dress is our little ode to the cool girl femininity of the era. Playful, artistic, elegant and just a touch rebellious.
Kitty' takes her inspiration from the treasures we endlessly swoon over in old fashion books devoted to glamorous summers of the 1920s and early 1930s. Easy, fluid and impossibly feminine, she captures that effortless kind of elegance that always feels a little ahead of its time.
One of the most exciting details of this style is her adjustable fabric shoulder ties, allowing you to style the neckline and fit in your own way. Kitty also arrives with two multi purpose sashes, designed to let your imagination run wild… wear them tied on the shoulder as pictured, as a waist belt sash if you want a cinch, headscarf, neck tie / draped choker or even wrapped onto a favourite handbag for that perfectly personal finishing touch.
This Jade colourway is a specially selected viscose georgette, chosen for its rich, jewel-like depth — a shade that was hugely popular in 1920s and early 1930s eveningwear. Made to order due to limited fabric availability. Kitty is also available in our playful Red Confetti print — same silhouette, different mood.

Who is Kitty named after?
Kitty is named after Kitty Laverne, the character played by Louise Brooks in the 1920s film A Social Celebrity — chosen for her playful, artistic and slightly rebellious take on flapper-era femininity.
Why is this style made to order?
The Jade georgette is a specially selected fabric available in limited quantity, so this colourway is made to order rather than held in stock, with dispatch in around 3 weeks.
What is an asymmetric hem?
An asymmetric hem falls at uneven lengths around the skirt rather than a level edge, a detail popular in 1920s and early 1930s eveningwear for its sense of movement and informality.
Does the Jade Kitty dress come with a slip?
Yes — because the fabric is sheer, a simple light beige slip is included.
Kitty is part of our centenary capsule collection, Under a Paper Moon — created to mark 100 years since 1926. Read the story behind the collection, Can You Wear 1920s Fashion Today?"
