What can I say about the inspiration for this style, other than it has an iconic 60s vibe. The Suzy is suitable for all day wear and can be dressed up or down for any occasion. A Simple little pale blue Mod dress, with contrasting Peter Pan collar belt and pocket flaps, complemented by True vintage buttons in keeping with the 1960s look. Made up in Roma/Crepe, stretch fabric. This fabric has super soft feel to it, is not too clingy although a little stretch to it so it’s a comfy dress to wear out on an evening.
