Rachel Carson Dress Pastel Plaid with Hot to Trot Hand Smocking

For Women full of Wonder. Named after the grandmother of modern environmentalism and author of ‘Silent Spring’ the book which opened the world’s eyes to nature’s cause,  comes this hand smocked summer time sensation.

The dress is made from acres of cotton lawn with a beautifully subtle pastel plaid, pleated then embellished with a deep garland of zigzag smocking in neon pink and white threads that run all around the bodice, front and back. The sweeping silhouette is further enhanced by a frill tiered skirt and extravagant handsmocked frill straps adding a feminine flutter to your summer escapades. And because nature's cause is as practical as it is beautiful, the dress features pockets, an elasticated bodice and fully adjustable straps for a perfect fit across different body shapes.
