Vintage 1950s Dress - TOP SHELF Designer Grey Pink Polished Cotton Rose Print Layered Halter w Glitter Size XS to S

♛Details

Glorious 50s beauty with sculpted bodice consisting of a structured pink cotton bra/sun top w halter neck layered over it, a very nipped waist, and a true circle skirt with its own attached candy pink petticoat. Dresses of this caliber are increasingly scarce, similar to what you'd find in a better-made Hawaiian sundress.

Note: rear zipper works fine, dress form too broad in back to close safely.

Hips full

Underarm of bodice to waist about 8"

Shoulder to hem about (approximated) about 42" and has 1" (original) hem

Great vintage shape. Gently freshened and smells/looks clean, does not show much in the way of past wear. 65+ years old.

For preservation's sake, it's best not to dunk something this old with glitter unless necessary.
