The Laurel dress is an original from the iconic British brand Laura Ashley and she was made in England in the 1980’s.
This is a midi length button through dress with full skirt. the lovely details include a delicate lace collar and pockets in the skirt (oh how we love a dress with pockets). Although not featured in the worn shots this dress also comes with a tie belt made in self fabric so you have an added styling option. Great vintage condition, 100% cotton.
The Laura Ashley is currently enjoying a bit of a comeback moment, synonymous with floral fabrics and romantic design this is a classic example of their design ethos. Please note due to natural lighting I'm aware that the colouring of this does look a bit varied depending on the photo, the close up of the collar is the most accurate representation of the colour.
Laurel likes: Pimms and cake, and pretending to be more demure than she really is!
