Authentic Vintage Lipstick Red Sparkly Silk Chiffon Performance Dress ❤️💎❤️

Era: 1950s

Crepe tank straps, Gathered and draped silk chiffon bodice and cumberbund, Center back metal Talon Zipper, Fitted waist, Rhinestone and pearl-encrusted cross body chiffon leaf appliques, 3 layers of full circle skirting with a sequin chiffon top layer that catches the light beautifully, Fully lined in perfect red taffeta, Finished and pinked seams ...

Likely handmade and one of a kind. This beauty came into my life under the guise of a simple 50s party dress and while I'd say she'd certainly light up any party and could comfortably be worn for such an occasion, the design elements and construction are very much that of a high-quality 1940s or 50s performance dress or dance costume...such a special piece!
