Mabel dress in navy floral dancer with 3 quarter sleeves

£89.95

SKU: MBL-3-QRT-WTR Categories: , , Tags: ,

The Mabel dress is one of the most stunning 1940s dresses we have ever re-created and it's now available with 3/4 length sleeves.

We painstakingly copied the original sample in our archive and the result is simply fabulous.

This style is so flattering, it drapes and ties to the front left side, a detail so popular with many of the original 1940s designers.

It has beautiful top shoulder smock stitching detail and tiny little covered buttons at the centre front of the bodice.

The Seamstress of Bloomsbury garments are made from the finest quality fabrics, featuring intricate and authentic designs straight from our vintage archive. Our collection is inspired by the work of our dear friend and original 'Seamstress of Bloomsbury', Lilian Wells, who made the most exquisite garments for aristocrats and royalty from around the world in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s.

Most of our designs are named after the lovely ladies who Lilian made the garments for, so you'll have a small part of history in each of our garments!

For products made in our Rayon Crepe fabric we suggest you care for the garment in the same way you would for an original 40’s garment.

We recommend you hand wash the garment just as they did back in the 1940’s, although nowadays you can dry clean them instead if you wish.

I visited Frocks In Swingtime to purchase two outfits for the weddings of both of my sons. The experience was professional, personal and a really pleasurable. Hayley recognises body shape and taste and chooses outfits that bring out the best features of the wearer. The garments are beautifully made and affordable. I have no hesitation in both recommending Frock's in Swingtime and shopping there again. Thank you so much for a delightful afternoon and all your help and advice. Cathy x

Fantastic service as normal. Can't go wrong with this beautiful shop and staff. The daisy wedge shoes I adore. They fit perfectly. Cannot wait to wear them. Just high enough wedge. To walk in comfortably. Great fast delivery. You just can't go wrong with frocks in swing
