Christian Dior launched the shirtwaist dress in the 1950s as a new, fresh look for the post-war woman. Gretchen Scott has taken the classic design and transformed it with contemporary innovation women adore. The stretch fabric beautifully flatters the female form. The knee length and three-quarter push-up sleeves streamline the proportions overall. The lightly elasticized waist and knotted front accentuate the waist without making you feel self-conscious. The over-the-head style is the very definition of easy, whether you wear it to the market with a pair of flats or add heels for an evening of entertaining.
