My Comments:
So cute... I love dresses with full skirts! Full skirts and crinolines are one of my very favorite of the 40s and 50s fashions. They are so elegant and feminine. But I have to say, in general I prefer dresses with short sleeves. If it's cold add a sweater, but you can always remove the sweater if it gets too warm. BUT, in this case, I think I would definitely make the long sleeve version because of the French cuffs. French cuffs are so very classy, in my opinion. I have a cufflink collection of my own for this very reason. I love to wear cufflinks! More cufflinks should be worn!!!
