This wee number is based closely on the classic Irene dress ( Irene at Home, Irene on Holiday, Irene 19).

I’ve been racking my brains to figure out where Irene came from but I really don’t know.

Great dress and top in all it’s manifestations, self belt for those with waists and sweet without the belt for people with no discernible middle, it can have pockets.

What I love about the Irene’s sister is the curved yoke with the piping , it has a subtle country and western vibe.
