1950's Black Taffeta Cocktail Dress with a fitted bodice and a drop waist, a full pleated skirt, square cut-out neckline.. Wow. Such a beautiful dress!! There is a metal zipper that runs down the back of this dress for that perfect tailored hourglass fit. This garment is in EXCELLENT VINTAGE CONDITION. There are no stains, holes, repairs or snags. *There is no fashion label in this dress. There is a size label that is marked size 14.. lol..
