‘New Look’ styling with a fitted bodice to just below the drop-waist. Has a lovely full gathered skirt.
Beautifully constructed with darts and gores to create the fitted bodice. Has short dolman-style sleeves finished with wide grosgrain ribbon around hem which is finished with a bow.

Vintage clothing sells only genuine, original vintage fashions.
Please note I have added a crinoline petticoat to show how the dress was originally worn which is not included in the price.
Condition Mint showing no signs of wear.
Size Small to medium (approx AU 10)
Please check measurements as the waist measurements were very small and the girls shorter in the 1950s. Measurements are measured flat on the dress so please remember to allow room to move. It is always a good idea to check measurements against a dress that you know fits
