This stunning vintage 1950s dress is perfect for a wedding or a fancy party. Fashioned of white chiffon that is accented with scallops of white lace, the entire dress is lined in palest lilac-blue taffeta for a slight tinge of color. The same lilac-blue taffeta forms the wide pleated waistband. The scallops of lace get gradually larger from the skirt waist to the hem. The skirt has a layer of white tulle between the outer chiffon and the taffeta lining, and there is a stiff buckram petticoat on the inside for added fullness to the skirt. The dress closes with a metal zipper at the side and the bodice is completely boned for support. Note: We've shown this dress over a full crinoline that is not included.
