Description

London, spring, 1939: Eighteen year old Ada Vaughan is a beautiful, ambitious seamstress. A career in couture is hers for the taking, if only she can break free from the dreariness of life in Lambeth. A chance meeting with the enigmatic Stanislaus von Lieben catapults Ada into a world of glamour and romance. When he suggests a trip to Paris, Ada is blind to all the warnings of war. Anticipation turns to despair when war is declared and the two are trapped in France. After the Nazis invade, Stanislaus abandons her. Ada is taken prisoner and forced to survive the only way she knows how: by being a dressmaker.
