1950s Heiress Boutique Dusky Pink Beaded Dress
About the Item
This lovely Heiress 1950s fine crepe occasion dress in dusky pink is pretty, gamine and features some gorgeous design details. The classic hourglass silhouette draws in neatly at the waist before flaring out over the hips into a playful knee length skirt. The dress is lined in taffeta with a lightweight silk chiffon overlay which is fashioned to create texture and dynamic in the piece. Soft ruched pleats adorn the bodice, which is trimmed at the waistband and sweetheart neckline with delicate silver rocaille beadwork. The ruched chiffon straps are wide set and mirror the soft pleats in the skirt and there is a central zip fastening at the reverse. This gorgeous piece is extremely wearable and in super condition. There is a small incision in the overlay at the front of the dress which we have lovingly repaired and is barely visible when worn. Would best suit US size 6, UK size 10.

- 1960s Jean Muir Silk Liberty Floral Print Dress with ScarfBy Jean MuirLocated in London, GBThis is a fine Jean Muir 1960s dress and matching tassel scarf and is without question, the best ensemble from this designer we have ever had in our collection. Early in her career, Muir worked with Liberty fabric and this striking psychedelic silk print could certainly be a Liberty design. It features a riot of bright purple, blue, orange, pink and green tones in a stylised paisley print. Each of the designs, contained in long rows of bands, is slightly different. The dress is a high shirtwaister design with an empire line bust, a low scoop neck and it fastens at the front with 18 fabric buttons and loops. There is a little upturned ruffle on the waistband and the skirt is gently gathered. The sleeves have a gathered cuff and upturned ruffle that echoes the waistline. The dress bodice is not lined; however, the skirt is lined in a quality pink viscose. Labelled a UK size 12, this is small in today's sizing and probably a better fit for a UK 8-10 or US 4-6. The accompanying scarf is a double thickness triangular shape with a row of hand tied purple tassels down one side. It is doubled sided with one print matching the dress while the other side is the same design but in a different colourway, focusing on blues, turquoises and orange. It's an absolutely beautiful piece worn alone or could could be styled either side to compliment or contrast the dress colourway. A very rare set indeed to find in superb vintage condition and from the very earliest part of Jean Muir's career. One for the serious collector, wearer of fine boho...Category
