New Powder Blue Petal Shelf Bust Honeymoon Party Dress w Crinoline – M, 1953

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. fabric: “silken peau” (cotton/silk blend), poly mesh noteworthy: dry clean only alterations: none condition: new with original manufacturer hang tag measurements: neckline opening: 11 ½” across neckline drop: 4” (front), 6 ½” (rear) shoulders: 15 ½” sleeve: 5” from shoulder, 1 ½” from underarm sleeve circumference: 13” bust: 38” waist: 28” hips: free length: 40” from shoulder, 32” from underarm sweep: 114” (skirt), 162” (attached crinoline) hem: 1 ¼” belt: adjustable from 23 ½” – 27 ½” long x ½” wide label: Naturally Natlynn (New York) size: no size tag present; comparable to modern size medium

By Carolina Herrera

Located in Tucson, AZ

An elusive long sleeved cocktail dress for the lady who wishes to cover her arms but accentuate her legs.

Rear nylon zipper closure with top hook and eye; fully lined in black silk. fabric: pebbled wool crêpe, silk georgette, sequins noteworthy: dry clean only alterations: none condition: excellent measurements: neckline opening: 10” across shoulders: 15 ½” sleeve: 23” from shoulder (including 1” shoulder pad), 16” from underarm sleeve circumference: 13 ½” at upper arm, 8” at wrist bust: 38” waist: 36” hips: 41” length: 37 ½” from shoulder (including 1” shoulder pad); 28 ½” from underarm sweep: 38” hem: 2” label: Carolina Herrera Studio...
