A front button-up dress inspired by French choreware, the 1950s silhouette and perhaps a hint of Little House on the Prairie. Made in a lighter weight cotton denim and fully lined in natural Irish linen. The fitted bodice has princess seams and the full length sleeves have elbow darts following the natural arm position. Fullness in the skirt is created with double inverted box pleats - two at the front and three at the back - which sits neatly at the hips creating a feminine shape without adding any extra inches. Discreet side front pockets are deep enough to place lip balm, hankie, phone or your hands. Constructed with French seams and sewn entirely with 100% cotton thread to ensure every material may return to the Earth. Hand sewn finishing, including the hem and lining.  The dark brown buttons are made of corozo, the nut of the Tagua palm tree. A linen lining is healthy and feels fresh and comfortable on the skin whilst providing structure to the dress.
