I wanted a dress made of subtly-patterned rayon, with long sleeves, midi length. None of my usual sources had anything even close. Same with trying to find a pattern and fabric to sew it myself. Along came a Novica catalog with this Celestial Day dress by Seema Shah. It looked perfect! I was amazed how quickly it arrived from India. The dress is as pictured. The rayon fabric has a lovely drape plus an interesting dobby texture. I love the side pockets. The lining is a nice touch. The background color is great and the print is subtle and pretty. There is embroidery on the front yoke which coordinates nicely with the fabric. I am 72 and it looks and feels great on me. I would have loved it at age 22!
Fits true to size. I hand-washed the first time and saw no extra dye. This is a lovely set - Cotton Pajama Set with Chevron and Boho-Inspired Prints, "Moroccan Blue"
This blouse is a work of art. The fabric feels wonderful next to your skin. Unfortunately, even though I ordered a size Large, it felt a little tight across my back, so I decided to send it back. But it is a beautiful blouse.
