Lobster's Long Lost Sister

'Eureka! The 1930s 'Lobster Quadrille' dress in my shop is the long lost sister of one of the prized 30s dresses in my personal collection.  Same color and type of fabric, same juliet sleeves, same back belt, same front inverted pleat.  Neat-o! Photo is from last year...how I WISH the backyard was this green.  Soon enough...

    Goodness these dresses are lovely! I love the shade and I think the red-y orange-ness is a lovely color on you, contrasting wonderfully with your fair skin in dark hair! This is making me think perhaps I needn't be so fearful of wearing bright reds..
