1950s Navy and White Diamond Print Strapless Sundress and Bolero

About the Item

What a fabulous 1950s ensemble of dress and bolero! This set boasts crisp cotton and a great print which is as vibrant as the day the dress was made. In a classic sundress style with a square cut bodice that is beautifully shaped, leading to a full flared pleated skirt - such a timeless style. The dress has large side pockets and belt loops for a belt which is no longer with the dress - these could easily be removed by scissors if desired or a belt added. The matching bolero jacket ties just below the bust line and has short dolman sleeves - the perfect little cover up or worn on its own over a little top. This dress has no labels but has been extremely well executed by a competent seamstress or dressmaker. It is in very fresh vintage condition with no issues of any note and would fit up to UK 8, US 4. Our model is a UK 6-8, US 2-4. MEASUREMENTS DRESS Bust - 32 in. (81.3 cm) Waist - 26 in. (66 cm) Hip - FREE Length - 35 in. (88.9 cm) Shoulders - FREE JACKET Bust - 38 in. (96.5 cm) Waist - 34 in.

  • 1984 Yves Saint Laurent Runway 2 piece Abstract Black Stripe Silk Dress
    By Yves Saint Laurent
    Located in Portland, OR
    This is a really wonderful Yves Saint Laurent vintage 2 piece silk dress that we have documented on the 1984 runway! It has a black and white abstract patterned silk looks almost like zebra stripes! The white sections have tone on tone shiny spots that resemble cheetah spots. YSL loved this print and used it in several different color ways, we have three different versions! The neckline of the blouse is gathered, and looks like it is elastic but is fixed, and the skirt is a wrap style, securing at the waist. This outfit also comes with a matching sash that we have shown as a belt, but can also be worn as a necktie or hair tie! We love that this YSL outfit...
