The Melody dress is a striking forties look shirtwaister style, replicated from an original vintage garment, right down to the smallest details like the three large feature buttons on the bodice. Made of an all-natural, lightweight and breathable pure cotton-linen blend fabric. The Berry red colourway is a rich, flattering pink-red shade, perfect for spring-summer weather.

The fabric of the Melody is lighter weight like the original to allow for the bodice detail, but means it is slightly sheer, so you may wish to wear a slip or neutral undergarments with it.
