Part of the 2024 Goodwood Revival Collection, this is a stunning, authentic 1940s inspired Tea Dress perfect for the famous vintage car festival. A re-launch of a Foxy favourite and best seller - named after 1940s wartime pinup 'Betty Grable'.

What do we love about Grable? Not only is she THE most flattering empire line style creating the classic 1940s silhouette. This dress is comfy, versatile AND could be the perfect dress for dancing!

A most becoming dress with a demure tie neckline which can be tied to create a keyhole or left open for a more casual look. The contrast bodice is made in our ruby bloom print and as was common in the 1940s - gives the look of a blouse and skirt but with the ease of a dress. Upper is softly shirred into shape with shoulder yokes and gathered under the bust.

This dress has been designed to be as faithful as possible to the 1940s styles. A slimming fit around the waist with elegant short sleeves with subtle gathers into the sleeve head and a sweeping 7-gore skirt to float you through any dance.

New flutter style sleeves that drape the shoulder make this dress perfect for dancing as they do not restrict the upper arm at all.

Perfect for Goodwood Revival and beyond, we've created this stunning collected in homage to the annual British vintage car racing festival.

Gorgeous dress

This dress drapes well, is comfortable, well made and looks fantastic. Great as a day dress and easy to glamourise for more formal occasions. A wardrobe staple.

Lovely!!

I have a small collection of HoF dresses, but this is my first time trying the Grable. I'm generally a UK 16 in their dresses and this one fits like a glove! I'd say this fits true to size. The skirt portion has a little stretch to it, so it can accommodate those times when you need a little "taco room". The rayon on top feels thicker and high quality. It's not sheer, which is a good thing, in my opinion. The flutter sleeves are adorable. This has definitely made me interested in trying another Grable someday.
