The bodice is fitted and sleeveless with a clean, modest neckline; the skirt falls in a gentle A-line rather than the extreme fullness of the earlier decade, signaling the quieter silhouette emerging by 1958–60. The back closes with a center zipper, and the lace continues uninterrupted through the closure — a small but telling detail of careful construction. The skirt is lined in cotton muslin. \u003cbr\u003eCarlye was a well-regarded New York ready-to-wear label known for precisely this kind of refined daywear: impeccably made, seasonally appropriate, and understated without being anonymous. This dress would have been equally at home at a garden luncheon or a summer wedding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn excellent condition, freshly cleaned and ready to wear. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✂️ M E A S U R E M E N T S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBust: up to 36\" \u003cbr\u003eWaist: up to 27\"\u003cbr\u003eHips: up to 42\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal Length: 39\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits like a small medium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: Carlye\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: cotton lace, linen \u003cbr\u003eCondition:  overall excellent, freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear.
