This classic 1950s shirtdress is a much welcome fresh breath of feminine style. The dress is a great example of Dior's "New Look," which was ushered into fashion in 1947, and really went on to define the 1950s. The fitted bodice has a defined waist, giving way to a full circle skirt. The bateau neckline is so elegant, and the shoulders and bracelet-length sleeves are relaxed in balance with the fitted bodice. There are buttons all the way down, with a hidden hook right at the waistline, which is perfect for wearing with a belt as shown. Fiber contents are not listed but it is a cotton or cotton-blend with a linen hand-feel, having a slub-texture to it. The Vintage Polo Ralph Lauren Leather Belt pictured is also available.
