Buttonquail Dress - The Pears of Wrath
Your new favourite fall dress might just be Buttonquail!! It has a classic Birds cut with an easy-to-wear short sleeved top and knee length pleated skirt with pockets! Buttonquail closes with a back invisible zipper and is made of 100% cotton with a soft satin lining in the skirt of 96% polyester and 4% spandex.
This dress can be washed on a cold, delicate cycle and hung to dry, and is available four beautiful cotton prints - Nightfall, Triffids, Quatrefoil, and The Pears of Wrath, shown here, which has a modest, Dust Bowl era country charm with its sage background and tan pears.
