{"product_id":"1940s-madison-dress-chartreuse","title":"1940s Madison Tea Dress - Chartreuse","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePresenting our newest 1940s tea dress - Madison. An artisan pattern cutting project that's required extra effort to perfect. Based on a french 1940s design plate, this dress has a plethora of divine detailing that treasure seekers will swoon over.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpring is the start of the tea dress season, so we wanted to explore a few new gorgeous 1940s styles to add to our catalogue to give Foxy fans some more options. The Madison dress, however, takes the 1940s tea dress to a whole new level and each one takes our skilled seamstresses several hours to make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMadison has a high neckline similar to our 40s Girl Friday tea dress but we've cut the bodice into 3 sections to create flattering shaping around the bust. The waist skims but there is no waist seam - the clever pattern moves into an oval shape down centre front where the skirt fullness is created from unusual horizontal gathers around it. Panels are a mix of bias and straight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSleeves are slightly longer than our other tea dress styles and sit just on or below the elbow. Gathered into the armhole, there is a little shoulder pad to create the classic strong shoulder of the 1940s silhouette. The end of the sleeve has beautiful detailing that echoes the front of the dress - a rounded panel with the fullness gathered into it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLastly - the dress has a side zip and back keyhole with button fastening. This dress is not lined due to the bias nature of the garment - you may wish to wear a slip underneath during cooler months\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features Include:-\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- high neckline\u003cbr\u003e- clever pannelling with gathers under bust\u003cbr\u003e- mid length sleeves with shoulder pad\u003cbr\u003e- bias cut areas\u003cbr\u003e- side zip\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMade with love in Yorkshire, England\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cb\u003eFabric: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e100% 'eco-vero' rayon\/viscose marocain crepe from sustainable source,feels very 'vintage' and as such gathers beautifully into yokes and under bust - is similar to the fabrics worn at this time. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWashing instructions: \u003c\/b\u003edry clean only (we recommend dry cleaning due to the bias cut panels in the skirt which can become mis-shapen after washing and in particular line drying)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength natural waist to hem: \u003c\/strong\u003eapprox 27inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House of Foxy","offers":[{"title":"UK 08","offer_id":56463833137538,"sku":"DR40_29cha_08","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"UK 10","offer_id":56463833170306,"sku":"DR40_29cha_10","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"UK 12","offer_id":56463833203074,"sku":"DR40_29cha_12","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"UK 14","offer_id":56463833235842,"sku":"DR40_29cha_14","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"UK 16","offer_id":56463833268610,"sku":"DR40_29cha_16","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"UK 18","offer_id":56463833301378,"sku":"DR40_29cha_18","price":179.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/9803\/5497\/files\/madisonchartreuse3.jpg?v=1774869573","url":"https:\/\/www.thehouseoffoxy.com\/products\/1940s-madison-dress-chartreuse","provider":"House of Foxy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
