Ceil Chapman Off Shoulder Silk Velvet Vintage Gown Black Dress Circa 1950s SM
About the Item
Simply gorgeous 1950's Ceil Chapman black velvet off-the-shoulder gown! Ceil Chapman was one of Marilyn Monroe's favorite designers (last image depicts Marilyn dressed in an off-shoulder black Ceil Chapman in a 1950 photo), known for her exquisite tailoring and ability to flatter the female form. This gorgeous creation is timelessly elegant and would be perfect for any formal event.
Features of the dress include:
* Lush, rich black silk velvet; wonderfully soft to the touch
* Bombshell styling with nipped waist and full skirt
* Gorgeous back that plunges to a V
* Sexy off the shoulder styling, draped side swags paired with spaghetti straps
* Sweetheart neckline with draping at the bust
* Built-in boning in the bodice for structure and shape
* Center back metal zipper
* Fully lined
* Maker tag reads Ceil Chapman
No size tags, but I estimate the dress to be a US size 6; UK/AUS 10; EUR 38. Please check your measurements to ensure a good fit. Outside garment measurements: Bust: 36" Waist: 28" Hip: free Total Length: 45.5". Please remember these are the garment outside measurements, leave yourself room for comfort and movement when comparing to your body measurements.
