About the Item

This pretty 1950s cotton summer dress was designed by Josselyne of Paris. There is something very contemporary about the design: the pristine white cotton detailed with peekaboo eyelets, the ruched bodice, the midi-length skirt. The top of the dress is unlined, whilst the skirt is lined with a layer of stiff gauze to give it structure and make it hold its shape. The dress fastens at the side of the left hip with the original, hidden bronze zip. The pale blue-on-cream label reads “Josselyne Paris”. This lovely dress is the perfect accompaniment to a garden party in the sun or could easily be worn as a carefree wedding dress. In excellent vintage condition with no issues and is freshly laundered. Labelled a French size 40 please double check our measurements below as vintage sizes from this era run very small. The fabric has no stretch and the dress would fit up to a size UK 8, US 4 on account of the small waist. MEASUREMENTS BUST - 34 in. (86 cm) WAIST - 26 in. (66 cm) HIP - 44 in.

1950s Diana Warren White Tulle Dress With Ribbon Appliqué
By Diana Warren
Located in London, GB
A beautiful and timeless original 1950s pure white tulle ribbon appliqué work dress from high-end British boutique label Diana Warren. Classic scoop neck, cap sleeves, a fitted bodice and pleating to the waist, the dress is adorned all over in scrolling ribbon appliqué work over a net overlay. The underskirt lining is a lightweight acetate with a net mid layer. The dress fastens at the back with a metal zip and is styled in the photos without a petticoat.
