Black and Taupe Café Society Painted Lace Split Peplum Cummerbund Dress-S, 1950s
About the Item
A pouty seductress, this cocktail dress was tailor-made for an illicit rendezvous in a smoky Paris café. Super heavyweight silk satin and painted illusion lace prove opposites attract, while the deeply plunging neckline teases with a modesty panel at the sternum. Ça que se passe á Paris, reste á Paris!
Sleeveless cocktail dress featuring pleated heavyweight satin cummerbund and skirt; illusion bodice and split-front peplum trimmed in painted lace. Rear metal zipper closure with top, mid-back and low-back hook and loop; rear kick pleat. Fully lined in cotton muslin.
