Here we have a fabulous French couture dress from the early 1950s. The fabric is soft wool in navy color with white velvet dots. She has an exquisite shape and she is probably from the very early 1950s as the top of the dress still has some 1940s reminiscence with small shoulder-pads and vertical front-pleats. The cuffs are just a marvel! Her Peter Pan collar and the matching belt are the final touch to a dream dress! Closes with a side metal zipper. What a piece!

Condition: Fabulous condition but as you can see some of the dots have worn out, specially in the areas where there's more friction (view photo). However, as you can see in the pictures, this doesn't change the overall look of the dress. There is a tiny hole to the right cuff (view photo). No other issues at all!
