Convertible Yellow Floral Circle Dress w Rhinestone-Studded Shelf Bust-S, 1950s
About the Item
Wearable with a halter or strapless neckline, this romantic sundress would be the perfect ensemble for a breezy garden party or summer wedding. Ideal for larger busts, the ample shelf bustline also features a rhinestone-studded under-layer that peeks out for added interest. The front center of the full skirt is slightly shorter than the sides and even longer at the back for extra perceived volume and balance.
Strapless or halter neck circle dress with graduated hemline and pleated shelf bust; rhinestone-center daisies along sweetheart bustline. Flexible boning at rear bodice; self-piped waistline. Side metal zipper closure with top hook and eye; hanging loops. Fully lined in ivory muslin with extra rayon slip layer in skirt; free-moving muslin lining is deliberately longer than dress in certain areas for added dimension.
