This Limb dress is ideal for those slightly more formal occasions when you want all the retro glamour without going large on the skirt front. It is the perfect dress when it is time to get out your gloves and clutch bag and dress like a lady. The elbow-length cap sleeves are flattering for women of all ages. The back of the dress features a small 7 inch pleat at the centre bottom and a long concealed zip that run from the top to below the waist for easy fitting. The way this dress stands out is in the quality of the cut. Rather than rely on Spandex in the fabric to do all the shaping, the tailoring here does all the hard work in producing a wonderfully fitted dress. Curved panelling around the midriff helps emphasise the hourglass shape while curving nicely around the bust and hips. The asymmetrical neck detail adds to the interest in this dress and sets it apart from other more run-of-the mill shift dresses that are available.
Limb is known for producing high quality vintage-style dresses in a range of flattering styles featuring some of the finest prints around. Their dresses are designed and manufactured in the UK. Limb hand cut their dresses in their HQ in a converted cotton mill not far from Manchester in the foothills of The Pennines. The modern cut of their dresses make them flattering for a range of shapes and sizes and they are consistently sized across the range. The highest quality of fabric and trimmings used by Limb means that these dresses can be machine washed while retaining their colour, shape and size.
