The Design
The Calendar Dress and Shirt by frankie & ray is a versatile and flattering dress or shirt. Popular for it's easy to wear style, and the hint of a smock design without the fullness as the back is plain.
A slightly smock style with a skirt gathered to a front yoke, and a plain back. Make with either a 3/4 length sleeve with a deep hem to roll up to just above elbow length, or sleeveless.
The sleeveless dress makes a great pinafore style, or can be worn alone.
The dress has fully lined deep patch pockets. All styles have a bias finished neckline (and armholes for the sleeveless version), and a narrow hem.
