IN THIS SIZE ONLY:
Bust: 35-36″
Waist: 27-29″
Torso length: Cut for a woman of average height
Skirt length from center back waist to finished hem: 28″
Polka dots hand-printed just for Whirling Turban. The high-quality cotton fabric and workmanship of the dress are pristine and we can’t keep the fabric in stock as it sells out.
To create a focal point at the bust, we’ve used our very own hand-woven cotton, made with just a whisper of fine, silver metallic thread in the weave! The effect is subtle and has a quality, vintage look.
Our charming Wing Bust style is an homage to an original from the 50’s designed by the brilliant Alfred Shaheen. The lines are ingeniously flattering and the “wings” at the bust dramatic and whimsical. Waist is flatteringly dropped, just a tiny bit. Boned inner cups with structured, clinging and supportive bodice. So much structure that int can be worn without a bra.
The dress can be worn strapless and comes with button-in polka dot strap.
We’ve photographed the dress with a crinoline that is not included with the dress and we recommend that you order one to go with your dress. We can tell you where to get the most vintage authentic- and we feel the very best- crinoline on the market- for a fantastic price.
The sheer silk organza bows and some of the other options shown in some photos here are not included, but are an embellishment idea. Skirt is unlined; fabric is substantial enough to not require a lining (unless contrasting colors are going to be worn underneath, in which case we recommend that you wear one white crinoline over the colored crinoline.
- We have never had a wedding dress sale before. This is your chance to get this exceptional quality dress at a very very special price!
- Sale item; absolutely no returns or refunds! READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY.
- Measurements provided are for the body measurements this dress fits; they are not the measurements of the dress itself “measured flat”.
- Whirling Turban dresses are noted for their beautiful fit; they are not “off-the-rack “dresses and so will not fit people who are “approximately” the stated sizes.
- If you need any help determining your body measurements or if you think you may need alterations, please CALL US. We’d be delighted to assist you personally! We only want you to have this dress if you will be absolutely delighted with it.

Dress comes with both a cream strap and a leopard button-in sweetheart strap that you can use to create different looks. The dress can also be worn strapless.
Our charming Wing Bust style was made after careful study of an original from the 50’s designed by the brilliant Alfred Shaheen. We have customized it by adding more boning around the entire bodice for soft corset-like structure and fully-ruched back with no zipper to view from the back. This required quite a feat of dress-making engineering.
