BLUEBELL - 1970s Vintage Betty Barclay Check Cotton Maxi Dress - Size XS/S
Meet BLUEBELL, a charming 1970s Betty Barclay dress filled with quiet countryside romance. Woven in a delicate blue, cream and soft taupe check, she is beautifully tailored through the bodice before falling into a graceful tiered skirt, finished with touches of sky-blue ribbon and delicate lace along the hem. A sweet notched collar, matching blue buttons and an adjustable waist tie complete her timeless silhouette. Her gently puffed sleeves add a lovely vintage touch, though the sleeve openings are cut slightly narrower than usual, creating a closer fit around the upper arm. An effortlessly feminine piece, made for garden afternoons, village strolls and bluebird days.
