From the brand: This dress is made from a chenille bedspread from the 1910s-1930s. The word
chenille
comes from the French word for caterpillar and refers to a needlework technique that uses tufts of yarn. Chenille-making flourished across communities in the South and Appalachia in the first half of the 20th century, who made and sold all manner of goods—including blankets, robes, tablecloths, and beachwear. "Tufters," as the makers of chenille called themselves, advertised by hanging their blankets along the highways.
This dress is made from a white cotton bedspread tufted w lavender dots and a simple floral pattern. Hand-mending throughout.
