1950's Silk Jersey and Alencon Lace Cocktail Dress with Decorative Pleating Detail

No labels found. What a gorgeous and unique design! This is a matte black silk jersey fitted hourglass dress with pleating at the shoulders and waist, and two tiers of black Alencon or corded lace with asymmetrical and scalloped hems. The decorative pleating at the waist starts above the waist seam on left side, and dips down a bit lower below the waist on the right side. The dress is lined in black silk, and the lace skirts are lined in a stiff black netting, with a generous band of horsehair netting at hems, to keep the proper shape. A truly beautiful and unique design. In very good condition: there is a small hole at back of side seam on jersey bodice, a tiny hole in the lace at bottom of zipper placket, a loose cord thread on lower side lace skirt, and finally the back zipper has been replaced with a nylon zipper. There are two white spots on the lining, above hemline.  Size medium-large. This dress needs to be filled out in the bust to look right, and it is fairly busty. Measures 40" bust, 29-30" waist, 38" hips, 16 1/2" shoulder to waist, 28" waist to hem. For a larger view click here. For a side view click here. For a back view click here.

"Herbert Schneider" and "This Garment is Pure Silk" labels. A beautifully tailored dress of matte black silk faille, feels slightly like taffeta and slightly like satin.
