The Sweet Disorderly Dress




The Sweet Disorderly Dress
This beautiful flowing gown is a piece of art just like the print it comes in.
On crisscross back and the full length skirt, you see text printed all over. This is a poem by Robert Herrick titled, 'Delight in Disorder' (See the whole poem text below). On the V neck front, the careless hand portrait of a lady keeps in tune with the 'neglectful cuff' and the 'erring lace' that Herrick delights in. This piece is a true blend of fashion and art and is bound to turn heads.
Delight in Disorder
A sweet disorder in the dress
Kindles in clothes a wantonness;
A lawn about the shoulders thrown
Into a fine distraction;
An erring lace, which here and there
Enthrals the crimson stomacher;
A cuff neglectful, and thereby
Ribands to flow confusedly;
A winning wave, deserving note,
In the tempestuous petticoat;
A careless shoe-string, in whose tie
I see a wild civility:
Do more bewitch me, than when art
Is too precise in every part.
