Vintage 1950's Beaumelle Sapphire Organza & Metallic Lace One-Shoulder Dress

About the Item

Fashioned from vibrant sapphire blue mid weight silk-organza, this 1950's Beaumelle creation has everything a woman wants. The bodice has a gorgeous ruched asymmetric one-shoulder shelf bust design. I adore the sparkling metallic threaded lace detail which is so playful and elegant at the same time. The alluring full pleated circle-skirt finishes this beauty off with a perfect Christian Dior New Look silhouette. This will be the dress you reach for every time you want to look dynamite. Measurements Bust: 34-35 inches Waist: 26 inches Hips: Free Sweep Total Length:49 inches This 1950's Beaumelle designer garment is in excellent condition with no rips, stains or holes. Perfectly working back metal zipper and built-in lining. Only sign of age is very slight wear by the underarms which is not noticeable when worn. This dress is over 70 years old and is truly stunning.
