50s Cyan Blue Fit And Flare Dress And Matching Bolero$278.00
GORGEOUS 1950s Cyan Blue Fit & Flare Sundress with Chenille Embroidery and Matching Bolero - 1950s Blue Sundress and Bolero | Size Small
Professional construction with no design or manufacture label present. This incredible dress set features a beautifully tailored sundress with the original belt intact and matching bolero, both pieces are done in the most exquisite shade of cyan blue polished cotton. The dress is fully lined and features a perfectly tailored bodice with an ultra nipped waist and horizontal pin tuck detailing. The skirt has an interior interfacing layer that allows the skirt to sit perfectly pert, especially with the addition of a crinoline beneath. The skirt features the same pin tuck detailing as well as the most exquisite ivory silk chenille embroidery. I have simply never seen another like it!
The dress fastens at the side waist with a nylon zip closure. This was a replacement by the previous owner and I have left it intact as it functions beautifully, an era accurate metal zipper could be swapped out at your own discretion. The original matching belt has a shiny gold tone metal buckle. The bolero has clean lines and lovely construction, also fully lined with no fasteners.
Condition for all three pieces is listed as excellent with only one minor notation. I note a 1/2 inch pen mark on the lower portion of the front of the skirt, this is entirely unseen without very close inspection, noted entirely for full disclosure. No other issues to note, presentation is phenomenal!
