Our print sarongs are inspired by 1940s starlet Dorothy Lamour, who starred in a number of South Pacific-themed films and musicals back in the Golden Era.
We've created our version with boned bodice and a fabulously draped sarong skirt. The strategic boning and carefully designed cut creates a fabulously pert, curvy and wasp-waisted silhouette, without the need for uncomfortable shaping garments!
We've sourced a wide selection of authentic 1940s and 1950s prints, from tropical hibiscus flowers, roses and leopard print to decadent gold oriental dragon detailing. You'll knock 'em dead in one of these! Most come with a matching bolero, to complete your glorious retro outfit – fit for the poshest parties, black tie balls and lavish weddings alike.
They may have the flavour of the South Pacific, but our sarongs are made right here in the UK.
