A super 1950s party dress with princess seams and a full skirt, great for any special occasion – cocktail party, reception, prom …

This vintage dress is made from solid color steel blue fabric.  It has a heavily ruched bustline that crosses over in the front and dips to a low cut in the back.  The shoulders would probably sit a little farther out to the point of the shoulder, but … my dress form doesn’t have arms!

The bodice is lined and boned and the hemline of the skirt is reinforced with synthetic horsehair to give it body.  The closure is at center back with a blue metal zipper and an interior hook and eye.  The label reads, Jobere New York.

The condition is excellent.  It has been dry cleaned and is ready to wear!  There is a very, very faint spot on the left shoulder that I can never find (maybe from a corsage) and a small brown spot near the hem on the left center front (see photo).  The shoulders MAY be a little faded but I can’t tell – it may just be the way the light is reflected in the sheen of the fabric.  I note this in the interest of full disclosure, but in all honesty it is very hard to tell.

The dress is shown over a crinoline slip which is NOT included but may be available separately.  The necklace shown in the photo is also NOT included and may be available separately.
