This is the quintessential 1940s classic day dress. It is simple and easy enough to wear for all sorts of twenty-first century work and play. It is also the most flexible and flattering dress you will ever own. Tiny box pleats around the waist create a slim smooth shape and the true wrap style means that it ties to your perfect fit, both on the bust and the waist. Perhaps these are the reasons that make this our best-selling style, or perhaps it is because this dress makes so many ladies look and feel beautiful and well-dressed, in so many different situations.
The ‘Peggy Wrap Dress’ is a “Seamstress of Bloomsbury” Original. If you love vintage design and detailing these garments offer you absolutely authentic quality and 1940’s style. Often exact reproductions of top class true vintage items, they are made to your size, perfect and brand new. The authentic Rayon Crepe de Chine fabric drapes beautifully and feels very much like silk, however, it is easy to care for and can be hand washed or even machine washed on a delicate cycle.

"Peggy" Wrap Dress in Navy Blue with Doggy Print Authentic 1940s Vintage Style
Perfect summer dress 😊 hangs beautifully, had lots of compliments when I wear this 😊

It's so nice to have a new kind of wrap dress, given how many there are out there. Especially as so many of them have to be paired with a camisole, as the crossover bit at the chest is way too skimpy/not designed for anyone with a B cup or more. This one is cut so that you don't need to use pins or a cami, and the ruffles add extra coverage if needed! The fabric is as with so many S of B dresses: you either love it or you don't! This is a very cute print, looks true vintage! My one problem with it is length. I'm 5' 8 and it shows my knees. True vintage seldom reveals knees.
