1930s Cabaret Flutter Dress - Black & Ivory - product shot

Channel your inner moll with our stunning new little black 30s number.

The Cabaret dress is adapted from our bestselling Charm Dress and showcases more key 1930s vintage features - this time a satin top to the dress which is decorated with waterfall flounces on the bodice and on the skirt.

Satin bodice has gathers into shoulder yokes with a wide neckline. It is also gathered under the bust and the skirt and waist panel are produced in a gorgeous mid weight crepe fabric - with a touch of stretch for fit.

The most iconic 1930s feature on this dress would be the satin waterfall flounces that we've added. The 1930s was definitely the era of detail and garments were often embellished. These are extra special because we've backed the black satin with ivory - a style feature often seen on mid 1930s garments where contrasts are used to enhance.

Key 1930s features:-
- fitted on waist and hip
- wide neckline with gathers into shoulder yokes and below bust
- waterfall drape detail on skirt and shoulder
- fitted skirt flares into flutter styles
- back zip
- part lined

Typical of the 30s, this skirt reaches mid to low calf on average height ladies. The style is fitted down the hip and thigh and flutters out at the bottom into the iconic 1930s style. With 7 gores - the style is fairly faithful to 1930s original styles.

The skirt has a modern back zip with a deep alluring keyhole opening fastened by a top button and is part lined.  

Fabric: Top is rayon satin and plain, bottom is our Poly/viscose crepe with a touch of spandex for stretch
Length from natural waist: 31 inches approx

Made in Yorkshire, England

The Cutest most flattering dress!!!! It took a long long time to get here because it was on back order for a good long time. Customer service was honest about the situation. I’ll wear it for other events but I’m not sorry I got it it’s even better than expected. Runs true to size

Absolutely beautiful. Thought going up a size, it would be big. I'm pear shape, so I went with my hip size. Perfect, amazing, feel stunning in this dress. Thank you. HOF.

This dress is seriously beautiful.

I had to purchase it after having to part ways with a vintage dress that no longer fit (wish I had kept photos - it had the same ruffly detail at the front, but in pink/black).

I'm in love with this dress... please make it in more colours!

This dress is sexy without revealing too much! The fabric is of very high quality, just the right thickness and feels very vintage. It takes some wiggling to get in and out of; no issue since it's meant to fit at the hips. The drape of the skirt is lovely, and so are the little details on the shoulder and skirt.
