Size 6 Marilyn Cocktail Dress - Small 50s Dusky Lilac Pink Lace - Full Skirt & Satin Lining - 1950s Grandeur - Elegant Sequins - Waist 25.5

This 1950s cocktail dress is a lace-on-satin affair with a special silhouette, elegantly fitted to the V-neck bodice with a bell-like skirt that's pleated in back for extra fullness. Glints of sequins detail the lace in subtle clusters, and the tailoring is formal and precise with an hourglass torso. A beautiful find, fully lined in taffeta. Exquisite condition, superb quality!
