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.
