I adore nautical themes and decided to design a dress that is such. I used to own a pair of what seemed like a sailor's pair of shorts with a bib in the middle. I guess this influenced how this beautiful dress turned out to be. Seersucker stripes simply spell preppy and vintage.

Feels like you are indulging in a glass of chilly pink lemonade for that hot Summer. This trapeze cut shift dress is made out of pink vintage batik (wax) printed cotton. I made the sailor's collar with a scallop edging to compliment the beautiful daisies on the fabric. Comes fulling lined with soft TC cotton lining (cream coloured). The trapeze cut flares out only from the busts, giving you a flattering girly sillhouette. One and only available online here.

Big names like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop were part of this jazz ensemble called the Rat Pack. (Wikipedia: “Despite its reputation as a masculine group, the Rat Pack did have female participants, including movie icons Shirley MacLaine, Lauren Bacall, Angie Dickinson, Marilyn Monroe, and Judy Garland.”)
Certainly this is what we envisioned the female Rat Packers will wear. Their signature bow tie is transformed into a feminine Peter Pan collar, accompanying a luxurious bodice made out of Egyptian cotton and polyester checks skirt.
