1940s Hostess Dress - Black - product shot

The Pretty Hostess Dress

The perfect vintage style dress for tea parties, picnics or even better - the cocktail party!

The fit on this dress creates a classic vintage 40s/50s silhouette. We love the wing collar that frames the face and the buttoned front.

Pleated above and below bust emphasises ones assets and together with the full skirt and waist seam creates a further 'nipped in' look. The 3 quarter full skirt gives a full sweep and grown-on sleeve with turn-up 'hugs' the shoulder.

Step back in time with this beautifully tailored 1940s style dress, inspired by the elegance and charm of true vintage fashion. Perfect for day to night wear, this classic 40s silhouette flatters every figure and suits any occasion – from tea parties and vintage events to evening dinners or retro-inspired weddings. With its timeless cut and authentic detailing, this Pretty Retro 1940s dress is ideal for anyone who loves old Hollywood glamour, WW2 era style, and classic feminine fashion.

Fabric:
 Poly/Viscose/Spandex
