••Sexy snug, boned, strapless bodice with shelf bust cuff topped with petals of tulle

Measurements -
About a modern Extra Small to Small*

Bust (underarm area, measured flat then doubled):  about 33" and can fit a bit more here if you like the pushed-up, heaving bust look (strapless bodices should fit SNUGLY for best look).
Waist: 25", pulled absolutely taut I can about 25 3/4".
Hips: Full/Free.
Length of strapless dress bodice, highest point of front neckline to waist seam: 10 1/4".
Length of skirt, waist to hem: 38".

*Please note -- modern size, if given, is an APPROXIMATE guess on our part.  For perfect fit, we have given you 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 (at least 1" is recommended) 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 structurally sound.  Overall very clean, crisp, pristine condition.  Extremely beautiful, photogenic presence.  On very close scrutiny I found a tiny tear in the tulle on the fan drape detail (see image).  It is unnoticeable unless you spread the fan out as in the last photo.  I also note the tiniest bit of yellowing/oxidation around the rim of back bodice.  This may disappear with a cleaning but it is not seen when worn, and is so faint as to almost not be worth mentioning.

******
PLEASE READ: Our garments are estate-fresh; any final cleaning and pressing is the responsibility of the buyer.  Colors are a subjective experience and may vary from monitor to monitor, so if exact color is a concern to you, PLEASE e-mail us for further clarification before bidding because we don't accept returns for color issues.  Remember, vintage by its very definition 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 carefully note any noticeable or detracting flaws or issues so you can make an informed purchase.  Although our studio is 100% smoke- and pet-free, we cannot make any guarantee regarding a garment's past storage conditions.  In summary, all vintage is sold As-Is.  We are always happy to provide more information, measurements, and history about any item -- just e-mail us.
