Scarlet Orchard Picnic

Cream lace edges the square neckline and returns along the hem, framing a deep red print of ribbons and little bears across the boned bodice.

Materials: Cotton

• Boned bodice: Vertical seams hold the shape through the ribcage and taper to a high waist.
• Square neckline: A wide U-shaped cut is trimmed with ruffled lace and tied with a center bow.
• Flutter sleeves: Short winged sleeves fall loose over the upper arm.
• Contrast hem: A tiered cream panel weights the skirt and lifts it into a full sweep.

Occasions: Afternoon tea, dinner parties, city strolls.
