Bias-cut dress, Tidsel
Tidsel - Thistle
Description:
This dress is super feminine and suits many different women. The dress is cut on the bias, which means the fabric skims the body without feeling tight. On the front, the neckline is finished with a plungy cowl neckline, and you can choose to finish the dress as sleeveless or add one of two different sleeves, depending on the look you're going for.
The dress is fully lined and sewn with French seams for a luxurious and hardwearing finish.
