About the Item
A honeymoon dress that was never worn (because the groom shipped out to Korea immediately after the wedding), this dress is the pinnacle of femininity. Oozing with propriety, from its petal-gathered shelf bust to its attached crinoline.
Short sleeve dance dress with wide square neckline and front shelf bust with blue and silver lace modesty panel at upper chest and inset at back. Horizontal placket around full bust circumference with decorative bow and trailing tails at center back; full princess seams front and back for sculpted “fit and flare” silhouette. Side metal zipper closure with hook and loop at waist. Attached interior tulle crinoline with bottom ruffle and string ties; lined to knee in powder blue stretch mesh. On-seam slash pockets both sides; matching ½” self belt.

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...
