Convertible Yellow Floral Circle Dress w Rhinestone-Studded Shelf Bust-S, 1950s
About the Item
Wearable with a halter or strapless neckline, this romantic sundress would be the perfect ensemble for a breezy garden party or summer wedding. Ideal for larger busts, the ample shelf bustline also features a rhinestone-studded under-layer that peeks out for added interest. The front center of the full skirt is slightly shorter than the sides and even longer at the back for extra perceived volume and balance.
Strapless or halter neck circle dress with graduated hemline and pleated shelf bust; rhinestone-center daisies along sweetheart bustline. Flexible boning at rear bodice; self-piped waistline. Side metal zipper closure with top hook and eye; hanging loops. Fully lined in ivory muslin with extra rayon slip layer in skirt; free-moving muslin lining is deliberately longer than dress in certain areas for added dimension.

Swirling Black Jersey Disco Day Dress with Plunging Bodice – M, 1960s
By Edith Flagg
Located in Tucson, AZ
If you had to choose ONE dress to wear for the rest of your life, choose this one. Its universally flattering cut accentuates even the smallest bustline while the swirling skirt (over ten feet!) skims over the hips and falls gracefully to the knee for dramatic movement. And though it is as light, wrinkle-free and sensuous as silk jersey, its easy care fabric means it is machine washable and supremely packable. A wardrobe workhorse, this dress can take you from day to night, Studio 54 to the Ritz Paris, and brunch to boardroom.
Long sleeve swing dress with plunging neckline and front and rear princess seams from underarm to hem. Gently gathered inverted “V” seam at bust. Rear nylon zipper closure with top hook and eye. Unlined.
