Red Silver Lamé Cocktail Wiggle Dress, 1950's
About the Item
Bombshell beauty! 1950's wiggle dress in a slinky red silver lamé fabric with a bow accent at the bodice and hip pockets. The sleeveless silhouette zips and hooks at the scoop back with a shallow kick pleat at the hem and a satin acetate lining. This one would make Marilyn Monroe proud! No maker's label though it appears to be commercially made.
