{"product_id":"romantic-vintage-laura-ashley-linen-engagement-dress-small-copy-1","title":"Nautically Minded 1940's Hand Knit Dress in Navy \/ M","description":"\u003cp\u003e👋 A B O U T\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNavy blue hand-knit wool dress in the finest wartime tradition — practical, precise, and quietly nautical. The short cap sleeves are trimmed with a run of navy buttons along the shoulder and outer sleeve seam, a detail that reads as both functional and decidedly maritime. The silhouette is clean and unfussy: rounded crew neck, fitted bodice, and a gently flared, pleated skirt. Interior finishing is notably careful, with a grosgrain ribbon along the back of the buttons, the mark of a skilled hand knitter who knew her craft. I am offering this one and another equally lovely piece by the same person. In excellent condition, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelt is not original to the dress and was used for styling purposes.
