vintage dresses Year: 1950's

vintage dresses  Year: 1950's

Late 1950's iridescent silk brocade dress with a ruched bust and cummerbund waistline. The fabric is a pretty lightweight reflective cream colored floral brocade with hints of yellow and peach. Wide straps, slight dip along bustline, ruching runs vertical, a little cinch of fabric under the bust and a bow at the center waistline. Wide pleats along the skirt to create a slightly poofed effect when worn with a crinoline. Metal zipper up the back. Lined with a sheer cream silk organza and structured netting on the bodice. A size label tag was found, designer label is missing, but high quality. Original owner has her name tag embroidered into the dress. [Dress was photographed with a crinoline to show skirt, would be less poofy without additional crinoline] .Get it here
