Description: Fascinating 1950s Rayon Velvet in a bright and radiant ruby red scarlet red. A lightly rounded neckline mock empire bustline, darted bodice to accentuate your positives. The straight front gives the appearance of a pencil/wiggle dress, but turn to the back and a fuller skirt exists in the derrière. Straight sleeves with snaps at hem, Back Metal Zipper. Partially Lined Bodice. No Label. Glorious color for the upcoming holiday seasons. Damage? No structural damage to note. In my opinion, excellent condition for a 70 year old garment. Fitted and form-flattering. An exceptional garment. No Label. Dry Cleaned.Dress measures: bust to 36, waist to 30-32, hips to 36, sleeve length from shoulder 22, total length 38, hem sweep is 70. Outstanding drape and drama. The boxed (it must be boxed to avoid crushing) shipping weight is 1 pound 4 ounces.A note regarding vintage clothing: it is rarely perfect. It has history, was, most likely, lovingly worn and cared for and endured far more years than most of us - in most cases 70 to 100 plus years. We try to detail every imperfection, but some seam separations, discoloring and stains may escape us; however we strive to repair and clean these wonderful designs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s ( I rarely dabble in post 1970 clothing). If you want perfect, I suggest you look elsewhere for newer clothing. If you want wonderful echoes of past designs and their attention to detail, we may have items that will appeal to you. Most of our listings, if not new, are repaired or mended to the best of our abilities and noted within the description. Most vintage items are professionally dry cleaned or laundered by an eco-friendly green on premises cleaner. As a result, listings prices often reflect this worthwhile investment in these garments. Their history warrants nothing less. Combining shipping charges is always our pleasure. With multiple wins or purchases, please await an invoice reflecting your discounted shipping. Sold AS IS with No Returns. Smoke and Pet-Free Environment.
