Say Hello to Slate, she is a SUPER SUPER RARE 1970s bohemian cotton cheesecloth prairie beauty in a gorgeous and refreshing crisp white, she is crafted beautifully. Slate is an absolute treasure to behold, these 1970s cheesecloth dresses rarely fall into my hands, and when they do they are always so treasured. This one is a particularly beautiful example, she is adorned in the most beautiful lace details, with a big crochet lace panel at her waist, lace detailing around her neckline and lace inserts into her sleeves. She has an amazing full swooping skirt with asymmetric cotton lace inserts around the full circumference, gorgeous handkerchief sleeves and gorgeous flattering fit open neckline. Slate really is a treasure to behold, I cannot express how rare and special these dresses are, they are so timeless and versatile too. I promise she will be your favourite hot weather dress forever and ever..
