This vintage Emma Domb empire waist column dress is crafted from the most gorgeous velvet. Emma Domb started her San Francisco-based label with her daughter in 1939, focusing on creating pieces for special occasions. The brand had a decades-long relationship with the Miss America pageant, creating custom gowns for contestants until the 1970s. This dress is classic 1960s, with its empire waist column shape, bateau neckline, and ruffled details. I love the bow details at the back waist, and the fact that the tails span the entire length of the skirt, like streamers creating movement as you walk. The rich eggplant purple is just divine in this plush velvet. The empire waist definitely makes this maternity-friendly! It is fully lined and closes in the back with a zipper
