1940s Vera Tea Dress - Sample
A one-off Vera has appeared from the Foxy treasure chest...
Introducing a very special sample edition of our much-loved Vera Tea Dress, made in Green Floral - a wonderfully rich green floral that feels every inch vintage.
This is a true one-off sample, giving one lucky Foxy the chance to own a version of Vera that won't be joining our main collection.
Green Floral is a real multi-seasonal beauty. Its deep, verdant green ground and romantic floral pattern feel fresh enough for spring and summer, yet rich enough to carry beautifully into autumn and winter. Paired with Vera's flowing 1930s/40s silhouette, it's one of those combinations that simply feels as though it could have stepped straight out of an original vintage wardrobe.
Vera celebrates everything we love about the classic tea dress: feminine, flattering and wonderfully easy to wear. Dress her down for daytime or add heels and jewels for dinner ā she's the sort of frock that earns her place in a wardrobe all year round.
Inspired by the beautiful styles of the mid-to-late 1930s and 1940s, Vera features a deep V neckline with delicate shirring at the shoulders and a larger section beneath the bust. Together these create beautiful draping across the bodice and wonderfully flattering definition through the figure.
Loose-fitting sleeves finish just below the elbow with buttoned cuffs, while the skirt uses cleverly placed bias-cut panels to skim the body before falling into a soft, fluid flare.
Made in breathable rayon viscose crepe with beautiful drape and movement, she has all the easy elegance we look for in an authentic vintage-inspired day dress.
Rare, romantic and completely one of a kind - once this Forest Petunia Vera is gone, she's gone.
