FROCKOLOGY Style Tip:

Lets talk shirtwaist, I know you are thinking can it get more old and dated. the answer is nope, think outside the box and discover a great new dress shape. Take the matching sash and pull your hair back and then add a great modern shape belt and undo a button or two from the top and bottom and let the good times roll. It will make you feel like a woman but more importantly make you walk like one......trust us men love that idea.

Shirtwaist does not equal house dress.

Frockology Care Tip:
Ultrasuede is a very durable fabric.
However, the concept of it being able
to be washed is to risk it becoming
misshapen. We recommend spot
cleaning and brushing with a
soft suede brush to extend the
luster and wear.
