1950s Velvet New Look Dress XS/S
The 1950s really knew how to do a cocktail dress, and this velvet and rhinestone number is no exception. A classic shirt dress style with a crisp collar and cuffs, it is elevated to the epitome of elegance by the luxurious plush rayon velvet, wide satin sash belt, and oversized rhinestone buttons. The very full midi length skirt is extra twirly and voluminous thanks to the crinoline-like underskirt and is just begging to be danced in. Pair it with a classic pump and sparkly earring for a simply stunning look. No labels, circa 1950s.
