Emmeline pankhurst dress glorious gingham with spring skies hand smocking

 As bold as its suffragette namesake, the sensational smocked bodice sets the high impact tone for this stand out day dress. Waves of hand loomed Glorious Gingham cotton are gathered into a pleated bodice, then embellished with a thousand exquisite hand stitched zigzags in lustrous sky blue threads.

Gentle elastication on the pleated bodice front and back ensures a perfect fit and smooth silhouette, beautifully balanced by the full skirt with tiered frill finish and richly smocked frill cuffs. The dress is finished with a dainty frill neckline with keyhole opening and pockets - as comfortable, practical and fabulous as any suffragette would wish.  Emmeline would indeed be proud: pin on your rosette and stride out with pride.
