The Hedy Dress

€315.00

Step into the golden age of femininity with the Hedy Dress, a design inspired by the refined charm of 1950s fashion. With its fitted bodice and softly gathered bust, this dress flatters the figure while evoking the grace of mid-century silhouettes. A delicate V-neckline, adorned with fabric-covered buttons, adds a demure yet captivating touch.

Voluminous bishop sleeves bring a hint of drama, perfectly balanced by the swirling movement of a gathered full swing skirt—made for dancing, twirling, and lingering glances. At the waist, a matching belt with a true vintage buckle cinches the look, held in place by lovingly hand-crocheted belt loops.

Finished with a hidden zipper at the back, the Hedy Dress offers both comfort and classic polish.

Your Fit, Your Way – Standard Sizes & Made to Measure

 

I believe every woman deserves a garment that fits like a dream. That’s why all designs are available in both standard sizes and made to measure, giving you the freedom to choose what suits you best.

 

If you opt for the made to measure service, your chosen design will be crafted entirely to your unique measurements—because your silhouette is one of a kind. To begin, simply visit the Submit Your Measurements page and fill out the form. A small additional fee applies to this service. You can find all the details on the Made to Measure information page.

 

Prefer a standard size? No problem. I offer a full range from XXS (EU 32) to XXL (EU 44)—please refer to the measurement chart below to find your best fit.

 

Need a little extra tailoring? You can also choose a standard size with custom waist and/or skirt length adjustments. This is ideal if, for example, your waist differs slightly from the size guide, but your bust and hips match a standard size—or if you'd like your skirt a touch longer or shorter. Simply mention your preferred waist and/or length measurements in the comments section at checkout.

 

Still unsure which option is right for you? Or have questions about fit, fabrics, or custom possibilities? Don’t hesitate to email me at info@dlccouture.com—I’m always happy to help guide you to the perfect fit.
