This dress has it all and is sure to be a wardrobe staple for years to come.

The PERFECT canvas for your vintage jewelry and accessories. Locally hand-woven 100% cotton ikat made just for us, to our specifications, from black mixed with peacock blue fibers for a slimming, iridescent sharkskin effect. The fabric looks absolutely vintage.

There is no more flattering and figure-flattering shape than this dress shape. Our boned bodices cling and are shaped like the ones Grace Kelly wore and not the "general" less-fitted modern bodice shape! While you may not understand the technical difference between the vintage and the modern bodice cut, it will certainly show in the fit and "personality" of the dress.

Wear strapless or with button-in "sweetheart" halter strap. We will include a matching narrow belt with a genuine mother of pearl belt buckle copied from a vintage buckle we found in an antique shop.

Whirlingturbans are designed to fit precisely, so please follow the stated size parameters carefully! Contact us if you want a bolero jacket to match or alterations to this size (at an additional charge).

This garment is currently being sewn in our workshop. It can be ship to you within 7 days of receiving your payment. Alterable up to about 2" up or down of this size. If you want an alteration, please contact us and confirm they are possible before purchasing.!
