details:
A floral masterpiece from the 1950s in soft brushed cotton. This sleeveless dress features a painterly garden border of blooming roses in vivid turquoise, rose pink, and mocha brown—an ombré bouquet blooming upward from the hem, waist, and neckline. The bodice has soft gathers at the neckline and a wide cinched waistband; the full skirt is crisply pleated for volume and movement.
condition:
Very good vintage condition. Minor ghost stitching at the side bodice from a previous alteration being let out, some tiny pinholes near the hem from a prior hemline, one discreet fabric repair, and and dark line at the left side of the hem. These flaws are all minor and do not detract from the visual impact or wearability. Freshly cleaned and ready to wear.
