The George dress honours George Sand, a passionate novelist and leading figure in the fight for women's independence.
Looking for a feminine dress to wear every day? The George dress is the one you need! Inspired by the dresses our grandmothers used to wear with a touch of romance. Its V-neckline can be sewn as is or embellished with a retro turndown collar. It features princess seams to enhance your bust.
The waist is tightened by a set of bows in the back or on the sides. It closes with a hatful of buttons at the front and pretty butterfly sleeves to cover your arms.
The dress is available in two lengths: mini or midi. The waist is lined, but you can make it fully lined by cutting the outer pieces out of your lining fabric.
