1950s Navy Green Tartan Burns Fit and Flare 3/4 Sleeve Dress with Pockets

Classic tailoring and a wonderfully full silhouette give the Cece Tartan Swing Dress its distinctive 1950s-inspired character. Designed in a sophisticated navy tartan woven with forest green and subtle beige checks, it combines timeless vintage styling with an easy-to-wear fit for day-to-evening dressing. The tailored bodice follows the figure through the waist, while a wide round neckline creates a clean, elegant finish. Soft gathering at the shoulders adds gentle structure to the three-quarter-length sleeves without overwhelming the streamlined upper silhouette. From the defined natural waist, the dress opens into a generous full swing skirt that falls to an elegant midi length. The tartan is used to striking effect, with the checked pattern creating a diagonal appearance through the skirt that emphasises its volume and movement. A coordinating self-fabric belt completes the waist with a fabric-covered buckle and silver-tone eyelets. Hidden side-seam pockets add everyday practicality, while a concealed back zip keeps the finish neat and polished. Wear it as it is for an elegant fit-and-flare shape or add a petticoat underneath when you want to emphasise the full 1950s swing silhouette. Its navy and green palette makes it especially suited to autumn and winter styling, while the classic tartan design works equally well for smart daytime events, vintage occasions and seasonal celebrations. Made from a structured polyester and viscose blend, the fabric has enough body to showcase the full skirt while maintaining the tailored shape of the bodice. Designed with a standard fit and finished with practical machine-washable care, this is an easy addition to a vintage-inspired wardrobe. KEY FEATURES 1950s vintage-inspired swing dress.
