About the Item
This lovely floral cotton dress is by collectable vintage brand "Sambo" fashions. Designed by Samuel Sherman, this piece is of beautiful quality as well as in excellent vintage condition. Sambo designs were well known for their lively printed summer dresses and use of high quality cottons - for example, Marchington Cottons - and often likened to celebrated brand Horrockses. This charming piece showcases these attributes to perfection. The thick cotton fabric is printed with an abstract floral design in pretty pastel tones - pink and yellow flowers are scattered over a mottled pale blue and white design reminiscent of faded denim. The dress has a soft, feminine line with a wide scoop neck, short sleeves and princess seams on the bodice to define the bust and waist. The waistband is skillfully cut into a zig-zag line and is defined with a dainty piped seam before falling into a full ankle length skirt. The skirt fabric is wonderfully generous and has volume which could be further accentuated with a petticoat. There is a central zip fastening at the reverse.
In wonderful vintage condition with no issues of any note. Due to its age, there are no size or composition labels so please check the below measurements closely. Would best suit a US size 6-8, UK size 10-12.

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.
