This rare slip dress, made in the late 1950s, is full of thoughtful details— precisely why I love the lingerie of this era, which is increasingly difficult to find! The neckline features alternating panels of mesh and lace, with some delicate gathering. Gathering at the chest creates a cup shape which is super flattering. The same gathered tiers and lace details can be found at the hemline. It features adjustable straps and an empire waist, which fits a variety of sizes. The dress is fully lined, and the fabric has a stretch similar to a jersey fabric. It's definitely possible to wear this out as a dress with anything under— thanks to the lining it's not transparent.

FITS A RANGE OF SIZES!

Measurements:

Chest: up to 40"

Waist: up to 36"

Length: 34.5" from top of neckline to hem

Good vintage condition. There is a small tear to the interior lining, and similar small tears to the gathered portion at the hem, which are not noticeable due to the double layer of fabric, especially at the gathering, where it is undetectable due to the density of fabric. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please reach out.
