1950s Turquoise Layered Tulle Net Halterneck Dress
Located in London, GB

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...
