The Secret Dress

A pale-yellow chiffon full-length day dress, with a full swathe from waist to hem. The full-length sleeves have long satin pointed cuffs that when turned back reveal the embroidered initials M&J. The yellow chiffon pleated belt is double sided, the reverse made from a burnt-orange slubbed silk with the initials M&J embroidered at the centre. The daffodil-yellow satin under-dress is made in a sheath style and has M&J initials embroidered down the side seams, interspersed with tiny embroidered daffodil heads.
