This vintage 1950's dress, in a classic shade of cream wool jersey, decorated with silver claw set rhinestones and tear drop shaped champagne coloured claw set appliqués, is just the piece for your everyday vintage wardrobe.
The rounded neckline is framed by champagne coloured satin pipping and a simple shoulder line that sets off the mid length dolman cut sleeves. The tailored bodice is decorated with scattered claw set silver rhinestones above which champagne coloured teardrop appliqués are positioned. The cinched in waistline is set off by small gathered pleats along the base of the bodice. The elegant skirt, completes this dress in a timeless shift cut silhouette. Finished with matching covered button fastenings along the centre back of the bodice and a zip along the centre back of this skirt, every detail of this dress, showcases the design and craftsmanship of the era.
