The Shell I suspect this is aMeet Shell, she is an absolutely dream and rare 1970s cotton and lace ethereal beauty. I love this one, she is feminine, she is bohemian and she is just divine, she has a beautiful ecru style tone, which I think looks so soft and delicate when worn. I love her lace features, those sleeves are everything, as is that corset bust, and I know this beauty will be a treasured piece in her next abode.. This girl should work on UK sizes 10 12 Bust up to 34"
