Sorry, this item has sold.

Gorgeous 1950s Cotton Dress with huge roll collar fitted bodice and a panelled full skirt.
The waist is dropped a little away from the bodice from there the dress smooths out over the hips then falls away in generous folds of fabric.

It’s an absolute delight and is in an enviously gorgeous condition
The garment was part of a fashion collection and has remained in its near original 1950s condition

The fabric is in pristine condition, and the dress has been cut to compliment the wearer beautifully. It is so absolutely gorgeous.

The dress looks wonderful on its own, but stunningly beautiful when the wearer adds vintage accessories such as gloves and pumps.
