Described back then as an afternoon dress for a dance party, the figure-hugging Sophia midi dress in 1950s style, with its full skirt and side pockets, still flatters the wearers curves today. An attached belt accentuates the waist, whilst the floral print lends the cocktail dress a feminine touch. This design featured on the cover of the Spring/Summer 1957 fashion supplement a true retro favourite for special occasions! Fabric Suggestions: Dress fabrics with some body
