This breathtaking 1960's blush coloured lace dress, fully embellished with matching blush coloured glass beads, in a timeless silhouette, is just the perfect piece to add to your cocktail wardrobe.
The rounded scoop neckline of the dress is accented by an internal suspended weight, which allows for the neckline to sit perfectly along the décolletage. The simple shoulder line is accented by a sleeveless cut and medium width shoulder straps. The fitted bodice is set off by tailored darts, which run from either side of the base of the bust-line and join the fitted waistline. The cinched in waistline is accented by a soft blush coloured piped feature, which draws the eye to the simple pencil cut of the skirt-line, completing this incredible piece in a timeless silhouette.
