Dress

Bias cut dress in bright pinks for summer -  this will quickly become a favorite in your closet!  My hand marbled dresses cut on the bias are fantastic summer dresses for women over 50.  The bias cut is flattering for most sizes and body shapes and the A line styling is classic with a contemporary feel.

L/XL short dress fits most size 14-small 18 with a bust to 42-43" and hips to 44".

Fantastic dress for travel as it does not wrinkle easily  - steam in the bathroom if your dress wrinkles - watch them fall out!  Fabric is 100% silk crepe de chine which has a beautiful drape and feels fabulous!

Handwash in shampoo and hang to dry. Store the dress folded to protect the bias-cut hemline.

Fabric

100% Silk, Crepe de Chine. Breathable, cool, comfortable and durable. The weave of crepe de chine silk is fabulous in heat and humidity - very cool and light on the skin. Easy care & great for travel.

This blouse started as a piece of white silk. Susan marbled the silk by floating paints on a liquid, raking those paints into a pattern and then laying the silk on top of the floating pattern She then cut and sewed this blouse - no two are ever exactly alike.

Size Chart

Bias Cut Dresses have a beautiful fit because they are cut on the cross grain (at a 45 degree angle).  This gives this a slight stretch and causes them to hang with a drape that you do not see with a straight grain cut dress.  Notice the flutter at the hem - that is a result of being cut on the bias.

Bias cut dresses look exceptional on women whose bust, waist and hip measurements are close - whether the person is small or large in size.
