There's a lot of action on this dress, and we ain't mad at it. Purple plaid paperthin Indian cotton is cut into an easy fit and flare silhouette with buttons all the way down, princess seam bodice, dropped waistline and breezy flared skirt with convenient pockets. Back to the action - there is a lively applique scene with a tall palm tree, donkey cart and what look like peanuts wearing shorts (?!?) along the side, accented by a long wavy zigzag stripe along the hem.
