Lady Danna Retro & Vintage

As promised, I show the second version of wearing of the outfit with the same really vintage straight pencil dress and cotton belt with metal Art Nouveau style floral shaped buckle as in the previous outfit (“Archive of 2022: Very hot autumn outfit in style of 1945 with real vintage pencil dress & bowler hat").  This time I decided to pair the dress with a really vintage silk swing dustcoat/swagger and a really vintage Spanish cream raffia and straw wide brim picture cartwheel hat made in Andalusian city of Granada.
