About the Item
Original 1950s dress from quality British label, Melbray, in a wonderful deep cerise polished cotton. The floral print looks like forget me nots in a brilliant turquoise and white which contrasts beautifully with the pink background. This dress has lots of interesting design details including a really special v shaped waistband which continues to form a wrapped skirt held together by four large fabric covered buttons to the front. The waist itself is gathered but hidden under the waistband and the dress also features Princess seams on the bodice and delightful bracelet length sleeves. In beautiful vintage condition with no issues of any note, this is simply exquisite fashion from the era and a best fir for up to a UK 8-10 or US 4.

1950s Hattie Carnegie Silk Floral Print Watercolor Nipped Waist Dress
By Hattie Carnegie
Located in Boca Raton, FL
From the early 1950s comes this heavenly silk dress by Hattie Carnegie. Its nipped-waist silhouette is the perfect canvas for the gorgeous watercolor print that unfolds upon it: a blanket of pretty peonies in shades of pink, gray, white, lavender and, of course, Carnegie blue. “My clothes are built to show off the woman who wears them,” the American designer once said. “I like them to be simple—complicated and simple—to move well, to move with the times and a little ahead of them.” Still stunning today, this vintage treasure is a reflection of her philosophy—and a ladylike option for so many occasions, from a springtime luncheon to a summertime wedding or garden party.
