1950s Rose Print Cotton Dress With Black Velvet Bow

About the Item

This charming 1950s cotton dress with rose print in an assortment of pastel shades - pink, lilac, yellow, jade green and white over a black and gold daisy print. The dress has a boat neckline with six inch wide straps gathered at the front and widening as they move over the shoulder towards the back of the dress. The fabric across the breast is ruched using irregular pleating to complement the texture of the straps. The bodice features a velvet sash which continues around the back of the dress and finishes in a bow with a popper fixture at the mid back. There is a central button stand on the reverse of the garment with black velvet covered buttons. The bodice and skirt below the sash detail are made up of tailored panels of fabric that synch in at the waist and flare out into a generous mid calf length skirt. There are deep forwards facing pocket details on either side of the skirt level with the hip. In wonderful condition, this piece would fit up to a US 6, UK size 10. Our model is a UK 8-10 and 5ft 11in (180 cm) and this dress fit her well. MEASUREMENTS: BUST - 36 in. (91.44 cm) WAIST - 32 in. (81.28 cm) HIP - 38 in. (96.52 cm) LENGTH - 40 in. (101.6 cm)
