Vintage Aficionado’s Dream Dress in Purple

Often referred to as “The Bombshell” dress, for good reason. Flattering WIDE V-neck with sleeves that miraculously cling to the outer edges of your shoulders via a feat of dressmaking engineering! WILDLY flattering on all figures. A favorite neckline of Ava Gardner and Liz Taylor. The perfect canvas for your vintage jewelry and accessories.

100% cotton, developed by and made locally exclusively for Whirling Turban, gives you a luxurious, vintage-true look. Often mistaken for silk; our customers LOVE it and buy this dress in several colors.

Luxurious, Whirling Turban quality, created one at a time, by hand in a dressmaker shop.

Locally hand-woven 100% cotton ikat made just for us, to our specifications, from black fibers in one direction of the weave mixed with rich purple fibers in the other direction for a slimming, iridescent sharkskin effect. The fabric looks absolutely vintage and our customers LOVE it.
