This stunning late 50s/early 60s Gene Shelly Wiggle dress is constructed of a soft and stretchy cream wool knit that is fully sequined and beaded in a dazzling winter branch motif. The dress has a high neck, quarter length sleeves, and just the right amount of curve-hugging stretch, creating a glamorous evening look worthy of a 1950s bombshell. Dress is unlined and zips up the back. It has the original Gene Shelly Boutique tag. Some small holes inside of the dress & some sequins missing. They're not very noticeable & can be very easily replaced. Please note - this dress is 65-70 years old, and is in excellent vintage condition. It's simply outstanding. No size indicated on the dress, however it has some of give (stretch) to it. I'd say it would fit a small-medium, but please view the approximate measurements taken flat- Length- 52" Sleeves- 13" Chest- 32" (could probably fit up to a 36") Waist- 30"

rmccouture Hi Danielle! Thanks for checking out my closet! I can't believe that I didn't put up measurements! I have to take the dress out of storage to measure it, but I can give you my measurements, which might be helpful ☺️. Bust- 32" Waist- 28" Hips- 34" Length- about 60" (I'm 5'5" & was wearing a 4" heel). The fabric absolutely has stretch

rockafilly1950 Awe,thank you. Having the dress measurements with stretch will help me know if this will fit me.

rockafilly1950 I am most nervous about the bust measurement.

rockafilly1950 @rmccoutureHave you been able to get the dress to measure it? How did it fit you with your measurements? Loose, tight?

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 Hi Hope. I added the measurements to the listing. My God! I forgot how flipping stunning it is! I didn't want to stretch it, however it does stretch. Please let me know if you have any other questions! ❤️ Amanda

rmccouture Hi again! When I added the measurements, your bundle got messed up! Sorry about that!

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 The dress was a bit big on me, especially in the chest.

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 If I was curvier, It would have fit me better.

Feb 25Reply

rockafilly1950 @rmccoutureis I am a 38" bust and a 38" hip. Do you think it will fit those measurements? I know its a long shot, but I want this dress so bad. 😂 any extra in the seams in the bust and hip?

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 I wish that I could answer your question with certainty Hope! What I can say is that I think a dressmaker might be able to do an alteration at the back zipper. Matching sequins are readily available, so they would be easy to add. It's such a great dress, & seems to go along great with your style (I checked out your closet ☺️). ❤️ Amanda

rockafilly1950 For some reason, your previousoffer disappeared.

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 It's because I added the measurements. I'll offer the discount again ❤️

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 The offer should be back up now

Feb 25Reply

rockafilly1950 I will keep checking for it. It hasn't popped up yet. :)

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rockafilly1950 Not sure why you didn't get the offer because it went out to everyone else 😭. If you have the dress in a bundle, maybe try removing it? I think the best way would be to make an offer. PM has always had glitches like this...

Feb 25Reply

rmccouture @rmccouture I made a bundle for you a few hours ago. Did you see it?

Feb 26Reply

rockafilly1950 I tried to accept your offer but it says its part of a bundle and I cannot accept the offer.

Feb 26Reply

rockafilly1950 @rmccouturei canceled the offer from the bundle and sent you the same offer. I do want to add the buyer protection option before buying so let me know if you're accepting my offer.
