Cleopatra 'Valley Of The Nile' Empire Line Midi Dress

'Valley of the Nile' is a favourite conversational print from our archives, recoloured in a palette of berry fruits including strawberry, blueberry and raspberry with golden yellow plumes. Dating from the 1970’s during the immensely popular Egyptian revival and inspired by the Egyptian Opera 'Aida' by Guiseppe Verdi.

Cleopatra features:

• Empire line fit and flare silhouette 
• Contrast binding around the neckline with gathers and self-ties at the neck 
• Full-length balloon sleeves with contrast cuff 
• Four gore skirt 
• Gathers at back along waist and at neck for shape
• Models wear: XS (size 8 AUS)  and size 3 (size 14 AUS) 

Fit notes: True to size, a gorgeous frock that hangs perfectly and the tie can be done tighter or looser depending on your bust. A real gem! If you have a larger waist suggest you size up although she isn't tight.

Model Sarah wears XS (8 AU) and Anna wears size 3 (14 AU).

Composition: Premium Stretch Matte Jersey (96% Polyester / 4% Spandex) 

Care: Reverse cold, gentle hand wash   

Storage: For Jersey dresses, we recommend folding rather than hanging
