Our favourite late 1930s dress in limited edition, in 1930s print 'Bloomsbury'. This could be the perfect dress for pretty much all shapes! We love the flattering V neck, cap sleeves, fitted waistband and flared skirt. 

Another winning combination of top quality craftmanship combined with a plethora of 1930s features and topped off with a vintage style fabric that behaves as it should. This is one of our all time best selling styles that we have not held back on vintage detailing.

This is a most flattering cut and is influenced by the the late 1930s dress styles worn from 1938 through into the wartime period. This dress has been designed to be as faithful as possible to these styles.

This dress will take you right through all seasons when paired with correct accessories. Wear with tights and boots and a woolly cardi in cooler days or free and flowing with sandals when warmer. This dress will work all seasons!

Dress has a high back neckline which hugs the back of the neck but allows the deep plunging cross over neckline to remain demure and not too revealing. Bodice of dress is based on an original vintage 1930s nightwear garment and as a result has authentic detailed shirring gathers into the shoulder. The cute cap sleeves hug the shoulder and create an elegant silhouette. Gathers under bust creates a flattering line into a slimming fit around the waist through the fitted waistband. With a sweeping lined 7-gore skirt to float you through any tea dance. 

Part of the 2024 Goodwood Revival Collection, this is a stunning, authentic 1930s inspired dress, is perfect for the famous vintage car festival.

- plunge neckline
- top stitching on shirring at shoulder and waist

The fabrics is a mid weight 100% rayon (viscose) and as such gathers beautifully into yokes and under bust - is similar to the fabrics worn at this time. Lining is a woven viscose.

Stunning dress

I absolutely love my new Ava dress - the beautiful blue colour with the small flowers make it a dress that you can use for different occasions. You can dress it up with a fancy pair of shoes or a pair of sneakers. The Ava dress is my favourite dress from House of Foxy and I have several of them in different colours

Absolutely love this pretty dress!

I tried size 8 & 10 which both fitted but I preferred the 10 for a slightly looser fit, it’s a flattering shape, very comfortable and easy to wear. Goes with my 30s & 40s heels and my flat sandals too. Lovely quality fabric, and I love the print with the little touches of green and coral, I really enjoy wearing it.
