  1. I am a fan, it's a seasoned classic, evoking memories from The Sound of Music to French classic country!
    And I love you checkered past as well! We certainly grew up in the same era, I remember dresses like that too!

  2. Everybody else has said so much already, but this is really special and very, very enjoyable. Curtis Roberts

  3. It's perfect! Again, I hope this type of styling makes a comeback...the fifties, forties and thirties deserve some modern attention!

  5. Mrs. B, I sent this to you as a recommended "packing" dress which must be a real blur & of course must have pockets.

    VA- yes it is the classic shirtwaist. which all in all can not be beat. I can see Mrs. Blandings in this one!

    ACravan -CR Checks are very uncontroversial too! though I love a little controversy -but you know that, thanks pgt

  6. 24, I love the checks too- and as you say every era deserves a great check! what do you think of the CK dresses Colette pointed us to.

    Janet- yes, I had too! she has got style in spades and as you well know every formal gown must have pockets!
