This rare, one-of-a-kind vintage 1950s ruffled tulle cupcake gown reminds me of something Audrey Hepburn would have worn, in Sabrina or another classic 1950s film. It is a true princess moment. The entire custom-made dress is blanketed in delicate ruffles on a bed of tulle, alternating each row between chartreuse lace and plain chartreuse tulle. Creating a classic 1950s full-skirted shape, there is an additional layer of tulle underneath, and then finally an opaque lining of the same color, so that there is no sheerness. (You could also wear a petticoat underneath for even more volume; please contact me if you would like to purchase a vintage petticoat.) In contrast to the dramatic skirt, the lace bodice is very fitted, with an elegant square neckline and simple spaghetti straps. It closes on the side with hidden snaps and hooks.
The Vintage Diamanté Chandelier Earrings pictured are also available.
Measurements: As it is, this dress will best fit a size X-Small; it is possible to let the bodice out and make the waist bigger but I will let the final owner decide how much. There is room in the front darts to let the bodice out by 4" total in the front, and 2" total in the back, for a 6" total all around.
Chest: 33"
Waist: 22" laid flat, plus a bit more give
Length: about 53" down center front to hem
Great vintage condition, with minor wear commensurate with age, including a tiny (literal) pinhole in one strap, but no issues are noticeable when worn and it presents beautifully. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email shop@verybreezy.com for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.
