Vintage 1950s Iridescent Gunmetal Silk-Taffeta Beaded Rhinestone Hourglass Dress
About the Item
Stunning 1950's gunmetal silver bombshell custom cocktail dress from the Old Hollywood era of glamour! The bodice is an alluring low plunge shelf-bust bow that falls into a heavily-sculpted asymmetric nipped-waist. The sparkling beadwork gives the garment so much depth and interest. I adore the draped side peplum swag which really flatters the figure. The narrowing wiggle-skirt construction emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. The backside jeweled duel trains really set this garment apart from other during the era. You will reach for this dress anytime you want to feel like a starlet!
