Stunning 1950s Cocktail Dress created from Sheer Black Silk Chantilly lace The gown is hand made and has remained unworn.
These garments were worn over a silk slip of a contrasting colour, typically peach, and the original owner has had it beautifully lined in a fine nylon jersey, the affect is nothing short of stunning.
The neckline is daintily scolloped, to the back it’s daringly styled into a deep V, to show off the ladies back.
Part of a private collection belonging to a well known designer from the 1940s & 50s
As the garment is unsized, I have given measurements taken when the dress was laid flat. These are given as a guide.

The length; 52”
Underarm to underarm; 40”
Sleeve Length; 23”
Waist; 30”

The bodice of the dress fits into the waist then flows over the hips to give a stunning circle skirt made up of 8 broad panels with bias hems.
The sleeves are full length and close fitting, fastening with a small Bakelite button at the back of the wrist.
This is the most gorgeous dress, perfect for jiving and jitterbugging, its original genuine and unworn, being kept in a store along with other fashion items.
