We are all up in a roar over this rare 30’s maxi dress! It’s as if Coco Chanel and Lady Mary designed this eye catching dress together. The delicate red, white and grey poppy and chrysanthemum printed sheer silk drapes beautifully over its wearer.

For added versatility this dress can be worn multiple ways: with a high, gathered neckline and basque waist or with the supple plum velvet bows accenting the gathered neckline and waistline. In essence, this piece can be worn either frontwards or backwards.
