You...enchanting by day, stirring and glamorous by night. May we present our thrilling new 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. Produced in sumptuous and authentic rayon satin - 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. We've made it in a viscose/rayon satin - the closest fabric we could find that feels like the originals! It is so elegant and hangs beautifully - this dress really is the real deal! 

New in this print: Dress features a belt which uses our splendid art deco clasp in black. 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.

*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.

Perfect Party Dress

Felt amazing in this dress. Wore to a gold themed event and wanted something 30s in style but really wanted arms covered - love the bias cut and cowl.

Excellent quality, excellent fit

The fabric and construction are of good quality. The drape and fit is perfect. I ordered this dress (in rust) to wear at my wedding, and it feels like a really special garment.

Inconsistent Quality

This is my 4th Joanie dress, and I’m sad to say it will be my last. Although I ordered the same size as the previous three, the sleeves are dramatically shorter with elastic so tight they cut off circulation. For the price point, quality control should be far higher.

1930's Glamour

Made and delivered in excellent time for a special vintage dining event - thank you so much for your help with this. I received so many complements I genuinely felt super glamorous - I was definitely wearing the most beautiful dress at the event. I usually wear a size 8 but size up in all of the cowl neck styles as I have fairly broad shoulders and need the extra room to comfortably get it over my head and shoulders - it still fits like a dream, with the deco belt giving it waist shape. Would love to have it in every colour.

Stunning dress and it fits perfecly!

I was concerned, cause i have a big bust and a thinner waist, so size 16 had definitly to much room around the waist, but the pattern manage to fit the fabric virtuoso around the body. Wonderful colour and very well made. Could have some inches more in length, but i am quite tall (5.9") so it is fine and the knee is still generous covered.
