Meet Carnation, she is an absolutely stunning 1970s handmade cotton prairie dream dress in a beautiful pink shade. She has a stunning regency esque silhouette with square neckline, puff sleeves, empire waist and a flowing skirt. She has a gorgeous floral print with stunning ribbon detailing at her waist and gorgeous delicate detailing around her neckline and cuffs. Carnation is one of those easy breezy wearable prairies that I love so much, and I can just envision how gorgeous she will look on her next owner.
