This sweet little 1920s era dress, designed by Keepers Dolly Duds, features lapel collars accentuated with a square bodice inset at the front neckline. The short sleeves are self-lined for a neat finish. The 1920s style dropped waist is lightly gathered to add a hint of fullness over the gently flared skirting that is accentuated with a delicate pleat on each side. The dress opens all the way down in the back for easy dressing and fastens with five buttons. Snaps or hook-and-loop tape can be used instead of buttons, if preferred. Added embellishments include lace edging along the collar and inset, decorative buttons that hold the lapel collar in place, and ribbon bows at the top of each skirting pleat.
