Emma Domb Black and Pink Ribbon Lace Asymmetrical Peplum Dress – S, 1950s
About the Item
The combination of black and pink makes this dress simultaneously alluring and innocent. Cut with an asymmetrical "minarete silhouette" peplum made famous by Travis Banton, it also features an off-shoulder neckline made more wearable by the presence of spaghetti straps.
Tea length short sleeve off-shoulder party dress of black taffeta with tulle overlay embellished with pink ribbon lace and embroidered flowers; lightly ruched sweetheart bust and spaghetti straps. Asymmetrical peplum from left hip to right ankle; black and pink tulle skirt beneath peplum for modesty and extra fullness. Left metal zipper closure with hook and eye at waist and top.
