1930s Joanie Bias Cut Dress - Spring Parade
And so, the Spring Parade begins!
Inspired by the glamour of Joan Crawford, she slips from sunlight into evening with ease. A bias-cut beauty with a soft cowl and the prettiest of details... one of our favourites for spring. This limited piece feels more special than ever… deco, and delightfully dreamy.
'Spring Parade' is an authentic floral print taken from an original. Soft coral pink, butter yellow, powder blue, and rich berry / aubergine tones, set against a warm cream base. Delicate blooms evoke 1930s -1940s femininity, with a fresh yet softly muted palette perfect for spring and summer dressing.
Enchanting by day, stirring and glamorous by night. May bring back our 1930s dress we have called 'Joanie' in homage to hollywood star and 1930s style icon - Joan Crawford.
This is a captivating frock based on an original vintage 1930s garment with some modern enhancements thrown in. This beautiful dress flows over the figure just like a 1930s original.
This dress has some typical mid 1930s design trademarks including flattering cowl neckline, long bishops sleeves and has been cleverly cut in several bias cut panels to hug but still flatter the body.
Dress features a belt which uses our splendid art deco clasp in cream. This was painfully recreated from an original.
No zip - due to bias cut - pull over head.
Key 1930s features include:-
- cowl neckline
- long bishop sleeves with elastic at wrist
- keyhole at back
- art deco clasp belt
- low calf length - approx 29 inches from natural waist (this will change depending on your own shape)
Dry clean or cold hand wash - MUST dry flat due to bias panels.
Fabric: 100% viscose crepe.
Both models are 5'5" tall *Please note - following customer feedback, hem length has been increased. The hem is irregular due to the bias cut. It will hang differently according to body shapes.
