1950s Turquoise Satin Duchess Dress With Corseted Waistband
About the Item
This spectacular duchess dress in turquoise satin has magnificent construction and emulates the extravagance and glamour of the 1950s. The sleeveless bodice has a subtle square neckline at the front, and graduates in a V at the reverse. The wide 4.5 inch waistband starts directly beneath the bust and is gently rushed, incorporating a band of paler seafoam coloured satin to define the silhouette. The waistband is corseted beneath the fabric and the construction continues over the hips to create a crinoline effect, elevating the skirt and in turn dramatically accentuating the waistline. The full skirt falls in soft pleats to the lower calf and is reinforced with a layer of stiff starched fabric and a double layer of thick calico that makes up the petticoat and protective lining beneath the corset. In superb vintage condition, would best suit a US size 4, UK size 8 being mindful that the corseted waist doesn't permit much give. Unlabelled but of excellent quality.
