A one-of-a-kind handmade dress from the 1950s, with black silk lace against pale
peach and blush pink. The strapless neckline leaves the shoulders bare, while the
close bodice and full midi-length skirt give the lace room to make its pattern felt.
No label is present. A metal zip closes the dress.

The contrast is part of its character: dark lace brings definition to the soft, 
pale color, and the skirt has movement beneath the clean strapless line. It is a
special occasion dress with the individuality of a handmade piece.

**Modern size:** 00/0. Waist: 23/24 inches. Hips are free.

**About the model:** Autumn is 5’2” and a USA size 0. Her measurements are approximately
30B bust, 23” waist and 35” hips.

### Condition

Pristine vintage condition. This piece should be considered “as-is” due to its age
and rarity.

### Styling

Wear it with heels for a delicate evening look, or follow the contrast through with
thigh-high boots and a leather jacket. The black-and-peach palette gives both approaches
a clear starting point, whether the occasion calls for softness or a little edge.
