What would I want? Sky

Absolutely and utterly obsessed with this dress. Actually, I obsess about most things Alexa puts on but this is something special. I have always had a thing for tea dresses since I saw Karen Walkers lightning bolt number but the Edwardian lawn dress is just something else. It really does take you back to a time where the world was in the throes of cultural, industrial and political awakening and where a lady was a lady - all finger curls, cigarette holders and rouged lips. As a teenager I'd imagine myself in a dress like this, married to Charlie Chaplin. Mind you, in my head it was Robert Downey Jr's version of Charlie!
