Morphew Collection Red & White Floral Cotton Hand-Crochet 40’S Hanky Gown

About the Item

Entirely stitched by hand in our Florida workroom. Each crochet doily dress is lovingly made recycling vintage doilies and handkerchiefs from the 1940s & 50s. Draped and stitched on a full dress-form in the round assures a glove-like fit unheard of in ready to wear. Each dress one of a kind yet built to accommodate multiple sizing. Handwash cold in a gentle detergent and air dry, steam and shape the dress to fit back like a second skin with each wearing. Morphew Collection Red & White Floral Cotton Hand-Crochet 40’S Hanky Gown MORPHEW COLLECTION is made entirely by hand in our NYC Ateliér of rare antique materials sourced from around the globe. Our sustainable vintage materials represent over a century of design, many of the rich textiles we use are no longer manufactured. Each piece preserves the hours of hand work and lost artisanal techniques into a contemporary design and fit.
