Belted Satin w/Looped Hem
Features - This dress is actually unworn and still has the tags to prove it! If you have a wiggle in your walk this dress is for you! It’s just stunning and best of all the silk is heavy enough not to be revealing and the blue is classy enough to dress it up or play it straight. And the loops do not flop around either!
Price - $400.00
Condition - Excellent
Era - 50s

Lilli Diamond Abstract Print Dress w/Matching Linen Coat
Features - This Lilli Diamond ensemble is a knockout! The colorful 50s abstract sheath gathers at one shoulder creating a graceful draped neckline. The straight lines of the mandarin collared linen Coat, with matched lining, offset the hourglass shape of the dress. Bracelet length sleeves and high-vented back complete the look, offering a hint of what's underneath as you move.

Style - Wiggle
Era - 50s
