Julianne Two Piece Dress
by Joan McGowan-Michael, White Lies Designs
Curvy is the word for this shapely, fitted look with a nipped waist and trumpet-flared skirt. Lovely lace shells trim both the sleeves and the hem. Julianne is pretty enough for a date and proper enough for work. Each piece also stands on it's own to stretch your wardrobe.
Worn together or as separates, Julianne makes the most of your womanly form. The scoop neck, button front top features pretty, fan lace trim on the sleeves and hem and sexy knit-in dart shaping. The sassy fit-and-flare trumpet skirt begs to be dressed up and taken out on every special occasion. Together, this man-slaying duo will barely get a chance to cool off between wearings. |
