Sorry, this item has sold.

Unworn 1950s Cocktail Dress created from Black Silk grosgrain with silk embroidery and detailing to the bodice

Professionally dry cleaned and ready to wear.

I have given measurements taken when the dress was laid flat.
These are given as a guide.

Size vintage 12
Guide size 10
The length; 44”
Top of bodice to waist; 12”
Underarm to underarm; 38”
Under the bust; 36”
Waist; 30”
Hips; 40” plus

The bodice of the dress fits into the waist then flows over the hips to give a stunning full circle skirt made up of eight panels.
The fabric is exceptionally firm, and there isn’t any stretch, please bare this in mind when comparing the gowns measurements against your own.

The neck is cut sweetheart style, complimenting the wearers shoulders.
This is the most gorgeous dress, once the property of a 1950/1960s soul singer and completely unworn

Please drop me a line, if you have any questions.
