The vintage 1950s silk cocktail dress was custom made to order by the Bergdorf Goodman salon— it's so special, and you will never find another!* Constructed in silk satin, the craftsmanship on this dress is just phenomenal, and it's so uniquely inventive. The full skirt has a unique bustle element; the skirt itself has an overlay, consisting of three panels in alternating shades of green, emulating a rose garden. (Underneath this layer, on the backside of the actual skirt, which mostly remains hidden by the overlay, but peeks out at times, also heightening that sense of the ground of a garden.) The bodice is expertly tailored, with darts creating shape, and in the back, a pink overlay wraps towards the waist, almost like a belt. The pinnacle detail is the trio of rosebuds at the back, sculpted with such three-dimensional detail. I love that the drama and whimsy of this dress is offset by the relatively straightforward nature of the dress's front, from the flattering square neckline and minimal spaghetti straps, to the tailored bodice and cleat pleats on the skirt's front. Parts of the skirt are backed with pellon, (commonly used in garments from this era) to keep its shape. Closes with a zipper down the back.
*(Typically the salon worked with the big fashion houses like Dior, Givenchy, etc. so this dress could have been the design of another major designer.)
Measurements: This fits similar to a size Small, but please refer to below measurements to be sure. (Note that in the images, the dress is to large for the model, so the bodice isn't fitting quite perfectly, but on the right person it will be super snatched and gorgeous, especially with the nature of the darts at the chest.)
Chest: 33" laid flat (up to about 36" with darts built out etc.)
Waist: 27"
Length: 34" from center neckline to front hem, back hem comes a bit lower (extra fabric in the hem for it to be let out, or it could easily be hemmed)
Great vintage condition. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email [email protected] for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.
