A timeless classic to behold, this original 1950's pink linen dress, accented by a repeat pattern of butterflies in a soft shade of pale pink, is just the piece to add to your vintage collection.
The square cut neckline is accented by a turned down collar along the décolletage which boasts a pink rayon satin panel. The short length sleeves, frame the fitted cut of the bodice, which is accented by tailored darts along and below the bust-line. The fitted waistline, sets off the single box pleats along either side of the front of the skirt line, which draws the eye to the elegant shift cut of the dress. The back of the dress is accented by a V shaped backline, and finished with a central metal zip fastening. This dress is lined along the top of the waistline and hips along the front of the dress.
