Is it a dress? Is it a coverup? Or is it a towel? It's all three!!!  Invented when Susan Albright was frustrated by the wet marks left on her coverups from leaving the beach in a wet suit.  Running into the grocery store or her shop after the beach became an embarrassing episode. Clutching her towel around her she thought to herself, "if only this were a dress".  So she made one!  It is also handy after a shower.  You can even walk the dog in it.  No one will know you are wearing your towel!

Made of our soft Pawleys Toile beach towels, the dress has a swing shape with an invisible zipper in the front so you can step into it.  Patch pockets big enough for your phone and keys.
