This rare early 1950s dress exemplifies the New Look era, designed by renowned French couturier Jacques Fath in collaboration with American fashion executive Joseph Halpert. Crafted from luxurious cornflower blue silk adorned with white polka dots, it features a gathered bust, elegant cap sleeves, and a full skirt that captures the period’s signature silhouette. A wide belt accentuates the waist, side pockets and the original zipper on the side ensures a tailored fit. In overall excellent condition, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear.
