The prom dress of your dreams!
Superbly made gown in bright orange and pink florals in a very swishy parachute type fabric.
1950s style dress has wrap over sleeves exposing the vivid orange red lining. Square neckline. The skirt is wrapped at the front and pleated into the waist. It's very full at the back. Closes at the back with a nylon zip. The fabric is shot so that it can appear pink from different angles. The gown looks to have been made by a professional dressmaker - it is so well made that there is not a raw seam to be had so I was not able to test the fabric, but most likely swishy polyester, or possibly nylon. It not only has little straps at the shoulder to hold your bra strap out of sight, but three on each side to make sure they don't show at the square neck. Made from a 1950s or '50s inspired pattern - it even has the interior waist stays like a '50s dress, but probably late 20th century based on the fastenings (clear plastic snaps, nylon zip).
