About the Item
This spectacular duchess dress in turquoise satin has magnificent construction and emulates the extravagance and glamour of the 1950s. The sleeveless bodice has a subtle square neckline at the front, and graduates in a V at the reverse. The wide 4.5 inch waistband starts directly beneath the bust and is gently rushed, incorporating a band of paler seafoam coloured satin to define the silhouette. The waistband is corseted beneath the fabric and the construction continues over the hips to create a crinoline effect, elevating the skirt and in turn dramatically accentuating the waistline. The full skirt falls in soft pleats to the lower calf and is reinforced with a layer of stiff starched fabric and a double layer of thick calico that makes up the petticoat and protective lining beneath the corset. In superb vintage condition, would best suit a US size 4, UK size 8 being mindful that the corseted waist doesn't permit much give. Unlabelled but of excellent quality.

1950s Turquoise Layered Tulle Net Halterneck Dress
Located in London, GB
This original 1950s turquoise and net prom dress is a real show-stopping, fairy tale piece. It reminds us of the Disney Princess dress worn by Cinderella at the ball.
There are three layers to the skirt; an acetate underskirt, over-laid with a plain net skirt and finally the top layer. This has 11 ruffle trims added in rows which give the dress a very full and sweeping profile. The boned bodice is also in the same coloured ruched fabric, imitating taffeta silk with net trim to the sweetheart neckline. The dress has a very pleasing detachable layered net halter neck that widens over the shoulders to give a little cape like effect. Fastening to the rear with the original concealed centre back zip and hook and eye closure. A long bow...

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...
