The elaborately ruched and draped bodice is a masterwork of mid-century construction, with cascading diagonal folds of pink chiffon sweeping artfully across the bust and cinching into a smooth, fitted waist — a technique evoking the goddess-inspired draping popularized by designers like Jean Dessès and James Galanos. Wide, softly pleated shoulder straps offer both support and elegance, with the added practicality of adjustable length. The flowing skirt is rendered in three sweeping panels — blush pink at front, dusty rose and sage green at back and side — creating a stunning color block effect that moves beautifully with the wearer. Fully lined in taffeta for structure, with a discreet side zipper closure. An exceptionally romantic and accomplished example of early 1950s American evening wear. In very good condition, with minor signs of wear. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM E A S U R E M E N T S *\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBust: up to 36\" \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: up to 28\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHips: open \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: 52\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits like a medium \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: none remaining \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: rayon chiffon, taffeta lining \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: very good overall with some minor signs of wear typical of age.
