This is a retro cut dress, A-line skirt that is knee length, cinched waist to show off your curves. Deep v neckline and short cap sleeve. The fabric is a traditional brown gingham. Inspired by Sherlock Holmes, this has the stereotypical colors you associate with a detective but sexy cut and shape. Can be worn for other things since it has that vintage retro edge to it... great for Farmers, great depression, or Little House on the prairie... use your imagination!
