Vintage 1950s Knit Dress Beaded Sequinned Black Wool Size L

by poppysvintageclothing.com

$ 225.00

  • Product Description

This is a vintage 1950s knit dress featuring bead and sequin decorated black wool.  This 1950s knit dress is made in a simple sheath style with a wide V neckline that is squared at the bottom by open work wool.  The bodice is beaded and sequinned with large red roses that are joined by black and silver sequinned decoration.  The cuffs of the sleeves are similarly decorated.  The dress has a defined waist and the skirt is gathered in tucks under the waistline that give the skirt some fullness and form.  It is unlined.

Label:  None, but machine knit, so manufactured

Age:  This 1950s knit dress is difficult to age precisely, but it has a nylon zipper.  The zipper may have been replaced as I would have expected a metal zipper.  Still, although I thought that it might have been as early as 1940s, I believe that it is a 1950s dress

Sizing: No size is indicated on this 1950s knit dress, but please rely on the following measurements for fit, keeping the style of the dress in mind as well as the stretch of the knit:

Shoulders:  18” across, seam-to-seam

Sleeves:  25” from the shoulder seam

Bust: 38”-42” around, due to stretch

Waist: 29”-32” around

Hips:  38”-42” around

Overall length: 40”, measured flat

Condition:  This 1950s knit dress is in excellent condition with no pronounced wear, tear or soiling.  This dress looks to have seen little use and was well cared for over the years. 

This is a wonderful 1950s knit dress - form fitting with beautiful beaded decoration!
