@Jumblelaya: a KILLER ca. 1950's dress.

A gorgeous dress, just waiting to grace your next tiki party, cruise, wedding, or other special, romantic event. (And it's never too early to start preparing for Viva Las Vegas, girls!) It's everything a 1950s Hawaiian dress should be.

For the vixen who doesn't want to fool around with the ordinary -- this dress is straight-up top-shelf extraordinary.

Details include:

~Fabric is a crisp, best-of-the-best pure cotton Hawaiian textile in navy blue, robin's egg, true lipstick red, white, black, and METALLIC GOLD
~There are no labels inside, but this true 1950's Hawaiian icon was purchased near Hollywood and was apparently often pulled by designers as an inspiration piece
~Gorgeous border print of Hawaiian blossoms set off by contrast red accents
~Classic New Look fit and flare silhouette, with fitted bodice, nipped waist, full skirt
~Super sexy ruched halter neck
~Atomic winged bust points are reinforced inside to keep their wicked shape
~Criss-cross surplice plunge neckline
~The snug, lined bodice is heavily boned (girdle-like, really) to make your figure looks its hourglass best
~Hidden side metal "Lightning" zipper closure
~Full, gently pleated skirt is shown with our light crinoline, but also fab worn free an' easy
~Jewelry/accessories/belts/crinolines not included in sale unless specifically stated

Measurements -
About a modern Medium.

Bust (underarm area, measured flat then doubled): about 36," though you can certainly sneak a bit more in here due to the style.
Waist: 28".
Hips: Full/Free.
Length, highest point of neckline (where strap attaches) measured down to hem: 11 1/2".
Length of skirt, waist seam to hemline: 25" and has an additional 2" hem allowance.

Please note: these are the measurements of the dress itself, taken flat with a flexible measuring tape and then doubled.
You MUST be smaller than the dress's measurements and allow room for give and the kind of fit you desire.
We do not allow returns and/or refunds based on fit.
Try measuring a similar dress you own, and compare.

Condition -
This 50+ year old vintage dress is in Excellent+++ condition.

Presents beautifully, very wearable, and is exceptionally well-preserved. No flaws or issues found -- this dress and its fabric is as crisp and pristine as the day it was made, and it was certainly not worn more than once, if at all. I hesitate to call anything from this era "flawless," but this dress is as good as vintage gets.

******
E-mail with all questions before auction's end. Remember, vintage is NOT new -- our dresses date from between 25 to 60 years in age, and they have long and interesting histories. Unless indicated, they are previously worn and will show the minor wear indicative of their age, but we are careful to note any noticeable or detracting flaws or issues so you can make an informed purchase. Our garments are estate-fresh; any final cleaning and pressing is the responsibility of the buyer. Remember, we'll be happy to provide more information, measurements, and history about any item.
