Brooks Brothers Summer Picnic Dress

This dress is just the loveliest. Brooks Brothers just does not make them quite like this anymore. Likely designed to be worn with a breathable slip underneath, this is the dress you want to take to the picnic or be out in the summer sun with. Not overly flowy, so no chance of the wind given you a Marilyn moment, it feels like it is a light cotton(no fabric tag) with a paper bag style waist line that can either be structured or unstructured to have I have it so it does not feel too rigid. My suggestion is that you should be close to the size of the mannequin(at least in waist and bust) for a perfect fit as this dress has no stretch and fits the mannequin perfectly. Mannequin Measurements Over Bust: 34 1/2in (fits mannequin perfectly) Waist: 26in (slight room in the waist if you’re an inch or so larger) Hip: 35in (luckily there is some give for some curves here)
