This vintage beauty is in really good, wearable condition considering it is from the 50s era. Super shiny fabric with a good amount of stretch to it. Pretty blue with dark undertones. Unique accent design around neckline and a cute bow at waistline. Side zip. There are some imperfections due to age but nothing outwardly visible apart from the odd loose thread. The sleeves are lined and the lining has some fading under the arms (not visible from the outside). The inside hem has a tear in the fabric but is not visible. I have resewn the hem and the waist in spots when I first acquired this dress. I have worn it to Christmas concerts at work maybe 3 times. I have found a green velvet dress for the concert so it's time for someone else to rock this dazzling beauty. Pit to pit 19 inches. Waist 15 inches. Length 39.5 inches. All measurements are approximate and taken lying flat. Fabric does have stretch. No tags.
Perfect for Christmas or New Year's Eve parties!
Think The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, I Love Lucy, or Marilyn Monroe!!

Hello! What do you suppose the max hip measurement would be? Thanks.

@feligraphy good question...ok...so flat lay it measures just over 18 inches in the back. However, there are 2 pleats in the back bum area that will open it up further to 21 inches or so. Plus the fabric has lots of stretch and it'll stretch up to 24 or 25 inches easily. Possibly more but I don't want to risk ruining the fabric where its vintage. I put it on (why am I selling this?!?) and it has A LOT of stretch !
