A sophisticated colour block dress by American designer Patrick Kelly. This is a shirtwaist style dress with the waistline sitting below the bust at the empire line. It buttons up the front with fabulous square plastic purple shank buttons. It has a V neckline with peak lapels and long sleeves, cuffed at the wrist with beautiful pleating details. There is pleating at the bust, shoulder pads for structure and it is fully lined. Includes two spare buttons (one black, one purple) sewn to the inside of the dress.
It's giving slight Joan Harris (Mad Men) office vibes, but an 80s version!

The garment has not been dry cleaned but this is recommended to the buyer. This was taken into consideration when pricing.
