Sophie chose the Suzannah ‘Odette Peony Silk Tea Dress in Navy’, retailing for £895. The rich dark navy signature style tea dress of Suzannah takes its influence from 1930s vintage style tea dresses. The dress features a round neckline with keyhole at the neck, soft long floaty sleeves with elasticated cuffs, a shirred elasticated empire waist line and a feminine and flowing draped skirt with slightly waved hemline. The dress features a beautiful peony floral print was inspired by a French antique, re-scaled and painted by a fabric specialist and printed onto the silk crêpe de chine fabric in Italy. The dress is partially lined from the empire waist line down. You can purchase the dress here.
