1930s / 70s Petra Bias Cut Midi Dress - Gold Satin

Wow - The one we all quietly shed a happy tear for when she stepped into the studio.

Petra returns with a bang - reimagined in the gold we’ve always dreamed of. Liquid, luminous, unapologetically 70s… yet deeply rooted in the 1930s glamour that inspired icons like Biba. This fusion of eras feels entirely us - romantic, decadent, and made for women who love to dress up.

She doesn’t whisper. She glows.

Bias-cut fluidity meets a plunging neckline and soft vintage shaping... the kind of silhouette that makes you stand taller the moment you slip it on. This is the dress that brings you face to face with your inner ethereal diva.

Go on. Embrace dressing UP.

There are so many beautiful details in Petra - it’s hard to know where to begin.

A deep plunge V neckline creates instant drama, rising at the back to softly hug the neck. Bold if you wish, but easy to layer for a more understated feel. Delicate shirring at the shoulders inspired by our 1930s Ava dress.

A shaped waist panel with four covered buttons defines the silhouette, while gentle back gathering forms a flattering blouson effect, true to the original vintage inspiration.

The sleeves are lightly gathered at the armhole, falling into a softly elasticated cuff for that romantic, 70s fluidity. Cut on the bias for beautiful movement, the skirt skims and falls effortlessly. Finished with a side zip.

Key Vintage inspired features include:-

- V neckline - with shirring at shoulder
- 4 covered buttons on bodice
- Bias cut skirt panels
- Sleeves with gather detail 
- Midi length - approx 91 cms from natural waist (NB: this will change depending on your own shape due to the bias nature of the garment)

Dry clean or cold hand wash - MUST dry flat due to bias panels.

Fabric: 100% viscose satin crepe

Made with love in Yorkshire, England

Please note: This is a tribute to some of the daring necklines of the 1930s but if this is too low for you're liking, it's easily altered to close up the plunge to your liking.
