Terracotta Flowers: Laura Ashley 1970s Dress

The Story

This prairie dress is a work of art. The high neckline, the lace trim, they speak of a simpler, gentler time. There is no belt to this garment, and its cotton flows like the breeze on an old Yorkshire hill. The orange tremendously pleasing on the eyes, and complimented perfectly by its floral ditsy print. Any collector, any appreciator, of Laura Ashley, would be happy to have this hanging in their wardrobe.
