-1940’s Swing Dress -

Inspired by an original Hollywood design circa 1942. The design comes from the WWII days of fabric rationing, which meant narrower skirts and more tailored lines.  Unique yoke with gathered shoulders and two sleeve options (short and "bracelet-length").  Gored skirt great for twirling! Put on your dancing shoes! This dress can be made for evening wear by lengthining the skirt.
