1950s Blue Floral Embroidered and Crystal Full Skirt Dress
About the Item
This superbly embellished dress was designed in the 1950s and most likely bespoke made for a special event. It incorporates many hallmarks of the era’s most-popular designs with its short-sleeves, squared neckline and circle skirt, yet the intricate detailing on this dress really sets it apart. The sky blue textured cotton is embroidered all over the front with delicate floral embroidery in the palest lilac. Forming tiny vines, leaves and petals in an all-over pattern, the embroidered florals are finished with aqua blue rhinestones and tiny pearls to the front. This dress has a coordinating belt that cinches the waist and emphasises the feminine ‘50s silhouette. It fastens with a hidden zip and three fabric-covered buttons which make a feature of the back. This dress is in excellent vintage condition; if we are being exceptionally picky, there is some chipped paint on the zip which is original. A good fit for a size UK 8-10 or US 4-6.

1960s Turquoise Scallop Pleated and Beaded Embellished Shift Dress
Located in London, GB
This 1960s cocktail dress is intricately adorned with pale-aqua ruched manmade chiffon stitched in a scalloped pattern across the entire body, the resulting effect is soft and cloud-like; the only distraction the occasional ivory or blue pearl which trims the chiffon. Heavy beading and embroidery feature across the bust and continue onto the wide straps. Here, ombré vines made from dark grey-blue beads and pale blue stitching encircle light blue iridescent beads and pearls - decadent detailing that makes this gown a stand-out piece for any occasion. The chiffon is sewn onto the integral viscose blend lining to prevent the dress from being sheer. A parted Watteau train...
