Indulge in timeless elegance with this stunning vintage dress at least 50 years young. It features delicate gathers at the bust, shoulder, and waist, accentuating your feminine silhouette. The high neckline and just-above-the-elbow sleeves add a touch of modest sophistication. A silk satin belt cinches the waist beautifully, while the hemline falls gracefully below the knee for a classic and refined look. On the reverse, silk satin hand-covered buttons and a snap closure offer an enchanting finish.

This dress is a prime example of impeccable craftsmanship and the lasting allure of vintage fashion, setting it apart from current styles. Complete your dressing by adding your favourite shoes for a timeless and effortlessly chic look.
