This absolutely stunning dress is one of the best examples of 1940's CC41 I've ever had the pleasure of owning.
Labelled Laeta Ramage, with the CC41 label on the inner left sleeve, it is made from wonderful quality Moygashel and the fabric has been used perfectly to show off the stripes. It has an off-white base and fine stripes in red, green and yellow.
It is a button-through design and has a hook at the waist, so is designed to be worn with a belt. It has a smart collar and neat cuffs and is a fine example of a classic 1940's dress.
