Details

Rose pink 1950s silk brocade sculpted into a very Ceil Chapman-esque cocktail dress, with pleated detail repeated at the side hem…such high quality, and a pity there’s no label remaining! Color is saturated and a deep, true vibrant rose pink -- something in between the images #1 and #3, which were taken by two different cameras.

Use ShopPay at check-out for layaway. Four no-interest time payments, but your item ships right away!

•Fabric(s): silk with satin rose floral brocade pattern

•Closures: rear metal zipper

•Designer/Labels: only a tiny remnant of an old paper tag found at the base of the zipper...made in the US, but by whom?

Any accessories or belts shown in photos are prop pieces and not included unless mentioned.
