Meet Cornflower, she is an amazing and unreal super rare 1970s cotton prairie dream dress by Earlybird, this is a HOLY GRAIL piece, Earlybird are one of the best and most coveted British boutique labels of the time. This is always my favourite cut by Earlybird, with a stunning button bodice with low neckline, amazing puff sleeves and a super full flowing skirt with flounce. She is crafted in dreamy natural cotton with slight slub and has a beautiful illustrative floral print in white with touches of burgundy on a delicate cornflower blue base. This is the ONLY version of this dress I have ever seen in this colourway, she is RARE and absolutely a true treasure to behold. I hope she finds an amazing home today.
