**Early 1960s Dorothy Pink Brocade Wiggle Dress – Size 0/2**

Product Description:

Soft power in structured pink. This early 1960s cocktail dress by Dorothy is the
definition of subtle spectacle—rendered in a richly woven rose brocade with silver
threads and an exaggerated off-shoulder bow collar topped by a sculptural rosette.
The silhouette is classic wiggle with elegant restraint, while the hand-finished
label and matching pink zipper pull confirm its midcentury provenance with a hint
of transitional ‘50s glamour.

Interior is fully lined with tonal seams. The original label reads “_Specially Hand
Made by Dorothy_” in red chainstitch embroidery, affirming the one-of-a-kind craftsmanship
behind this piece.
