Vintage 1940's Ceil Chapman Windowpane Print White Cotton Peplum Full-Skirt Gown

About the Item

This is such a stunning and ethereal Ceil Chapman full-length garden gown dating back to the mid 1940's. Perfect for any upcoming wedding or daytime party; you can't help but feel feminine in this beauty! The garment is fashioned from mid-weight white cotton with a complex, sensational dark midnight blue windowpane graphic motif. I love how the pattern placement matches up perfectly to really flatter the figure. The cap-sleeve wide neckline fitted nipped waist bodice is met by an impressive sculpted peplum. A voluminous full-length skirt finishes the garden gown off with a perfect Old Hollywood vibe. The construction is so fresh and modern yet also still has a timeless quality. Ceil Chapman is often said to be Marilyn Monroe's favorite designer and I can totally see why. This stunning piece of fashion history would make an unforgettable look for any modern event. Measurements Bust: 34-35 inches Waist: 26 inches Hips: Free Sweep Total Length: 62 inches This 1940's Ceil Chapman designer garden gown is in beautiful condition with no noticeable rips, stains or holes. Perfectly working side metal-zipper. Would made a gorgeous bridal moment or a showstopper at any daytime gala.

    By Givenchy
    Located in Beverly Hills, CA
    Givenchy, the name itself evokes glamour, refined elegance, simplicity and style. Givenchy's trademark of sculpted lines and luxurious fabrics make his work easily recognizable. This gorgeous cocktail, dating back to his 1990 Fall-Winter runway collection, is a beautiful example of his brilliance. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; liquid silk velvet in the prettiest sapphire blue color. I adore the seductive criss-cross plunge bodice with lean, long zipper-wrist sleeves. The sparkling rhinestone-encrusted side buttons create the perfect amount of drama to this timeless piece. An hourglass nipped-waist skirt with side draping finishes this garment off with a perfect femme fatale vibe. It is an exquisite example of wearable luxurious from one of the most important houses of the modern era.
