True to mid-century fashion, the Thomasina features a full circle skirt that sits just below the knee, moving beautifully with every step. A sturdy metal YKK zip runs down the back, while the skirt length measures 29" (74cm) from waist to hem on a size UK 12 / US 8. And of course, it has pockets.

Made ethically in our main factory in India from 100% cotton, this 1950s motor racing dress is as practical as it is stylish, combining breathable comfort with a structured silhouette. Whether you're a vintage fashion lover or a classic car enthusiast, the Thomasina is a timeless piece you'll treasure for years to come.

Penelope C. ★★★★★

The 1950s silhouette is spot-on—the nipped waist makes me feel like I just stepped off the track. I've already worn it twice this week and the fabric holds its shape beautifully through a full day of errands.

Avery ★★★★★

I wore it to a picnic and three people asked where I got the print — it's such a fun conversation starter. The cut is true vintage, nipped at the waist but roomy enough that I could actually eat lunch in it.

Abigail ★★★★★

The dress fits beautifully through the waist and flares just right for twirling, and the unique racing print feels like wearing a piece of real history. I’ve already gotten so many compliments walking around town in it, and the cotton fabric is surprisingly breathable for a warm afternoon.
